Hi Tim,

thank you for chiming in.

Ralf, actually the license has to accompany every download.
I spent a lot of time with NAG about requiring license and
license text (in each file). Their lawyers required it. So I don't
think it is sufficient to refer to github. The license (whatever
its name) has to be included in the download.

%>diff LICENSE license/LICENSE.AXIOM
1,3d0
< Copyright (c) 2007-2023, The FriCAS Team
< Copyright (c) 2002-2007, The Axiom Team
<

So, in fact, the new LICENSE file IS the NAG license file, it just reflects that newer development has other copyright attributions.

I do not think that basically moving license/LICENSE.AXIOM to LICENSE and adding the above 3 lines at the top can in any way violate the requirement that you got from NAG. I am not a lawyer, but I just think it is legally safe to remove license/LICENSE.AIXIOM and only retain LICENSE.

What to you think?

Ralf
