Hi Jimin, thanks for pointing me quickly into the right direction. It would be great if you could possibly add a version to the downloadable tarball to enable users quickly realising if the code was upgraded.
After revisiting the source code I have enother question about the license. The README file says: NON-EXCLUSIVE LICENCE from the authors of Clustal W ([email protected], [email protected] or [email protected]). According to this policy, PCMA is free for non-commercial uses. Commercial uses are disallowed. The code for clustalw was freed in version 2.1 and is now licensed under GNU Lesser General Public License version 3 or later. So in principle you are now free to choose a free license also for your own pcma code. If you would consider this we could really package it for main Debian as the Debian Med team would like to do. Kind regards Andreas.
