  Description     : Small Angle Scattering Analysis

 SasView is a Small Angle Scattering Analysis Software Package,
 originally developed as part of the NSF DANSE project under the name
 SansView, now managed by an international collaboration of facilities.
 .
 SasView is software for the analysis of Small-Angle Scattering (SAS)
 data.
 .
 It fits analytic functions describing different types of material
 microstructure to experimental data in order to determine the shape,
 size and degree of ordering.
 .
 SasView also includes tools for calculating scattering length
 densities, slit sizes, resolution, fringe thicknesses/d-spacings, the
 (Porod) invariant ('total scattering'), and distance distribution
 functions.

This software is routinely used in scientific institutions to model
and interpret small angle scattering data (SANS,SAXS). A key point of
value is the "marketplace" of SAS models at
http://marketplace.sasview.org/ contributed by the community.

Sasview has been developed as collaboration of international facilities,
including www.diamond.ac.uk, www.umd.edu, www.tnw.tudelft.nl,
www.ansto.gov.au, www.ill.eu, ess-scandinavia.eu, www.isis.stfc.ac.uk,
neutrons.ornl.gov, www.nist.gov and www.utk.edu.

It has python package prequisites:
  pylint
  unittest-xml-reporting==1.10.0
  pyparsing==1.5.5
  html5lib==0.95
  reportlab==2.5
  lxml==2.3
  #PIL==1.1.7
  periodictable==1.3.0
  bumps==0.7.5.9
  numpy>=1.7.1
  scipy>=0.18.0
  # wx==2.8.12.1
  # matplotlib==1.1.0
  xhtml2pdf==0.0.6
  sphinx==1.2.1
  h5py==2.5
  pyopencl==2015.1

Some are not yet packaged, and should be considered part of this ITP.

Packaging will be maintained under the Debian Science team.
