Please note that the NAG copyright license is not the only license that applies. There are quite a few others that need to be cited (per U.S. copyright law anyway). There are 12 in the license directory. https://github.com/daly/axiom/tree/master/license
These additional licenses should probably be cited if they were ever part of the github history since the code is available in the git download distribution. The NAG version I originally received was implemented in CCL. I rewrote it in AKCL but the CCL license still applies to the original sources. AKCL is now GCL so that new license likely applies. Check with Camm. Some of them probably don't apply, such as the LAPACK license. I rewrote LAPACK into Common Lisp and included the newly rewritten code into the source tree. Despite the fact that no LAPACK code is included it is still ethically correct to include that license. I think this change is post-fork so it may not apply.
