Alex D Herbert commented on RNG-85:
-----------------------------------

Just looked at the c-code for this.

There is a suggested implementation for seeding using a 64-bit number in the 
range of 0 to 2^64-1. 

The code package states that the software is under GPL 3. However the GPL 3 
licence is only included in the main source file for the generator and not 
anything else.

Q. How to make this compliant with the Apache licence?
