Hi Charles,
I'll be up at the EBI in a couple of weeks. Is there anything I can do
to try and persuade them to grant an acceptable license or has this
already been tried? EMBOSS is a software package that I still consider
to be very important, even though development is currently stalled due
to lack of funding.
Cheers,
TIM
