The rule of thumb that we have tried to follow is that we never use *only* a reference to NR and we avoid even looking at the code in NR.

Good, no problem with these as long as the implementations are original and the source of the algorithms is not encumbered a la NR. >Some methods however are pretty standard, like FFT.

This is optimal both from the standpoint of avoiding encumbered IP and maintainability and reliability.
