Dear Gary, I'm writing you on behalf of the Debian Med team which is a subgroup inside Debian with the objective to package free software in the field of biology and medicine for official Debian. Since we intend to package RepeatMasker (see our so called task list in the todo-section[1]) we also need to package your tool Tandem Repeats Finder[2].
We've just contacted Yözen Hernández in some mails and he suggested to contact you since he is not able to decide about the licensing. It would be really nice if you would consider the arguments given in these two mails https://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2016/05/msg00121.html https://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2016/05/msg00064.html into your considerations about distributing the source code. Kind regards and thanks for considering Andreas. [1] http://blends.debian.org/med/tasks/bio#repeatmasker [2] http://tandem.bu.edu/trf/trf.html -- http://fam-tille.de
