My point is that PGPLOT is not being used as the default plotting package
because of its copyright, and if the goal is to get PDL and a plotting
pacakage included in all major Linux distributions, then whatever we use has
to have a very free license too. I don't know if the GPL for AST is open
enough(!) but skimming through the Debian packages lists, I can't see AST in
there anywhere.

Do you know if AST was ever submitted and/or rejected from Linux
distributions because of its license?

Thanks,

Matt
