So is this OK now with everyone? See discussion below with Marcin for
the logic.

In the body of a paper.
Parts of the analysis presented here made use of the Perl Data
Language\footnote{The Perl Data Language (PDL) has been developed by K.
Glazebrook, J. Brinchmann, J. Cerney, C. DeForest, D. Hunt, T. Jenness, T.
Luka, R. Schwebel, and C. Soeller and can be obtained from http://pdl.perl.org}
which provides a high-level numerical functionality in the perl scripting
language (Glazebrook & Economou, 1997).

OK what do you think of the following (see attachment)
This ought to keep everyone happy! Sorry it's so difficult but
it's important to keep all the authors happy, reference the web
site in a journal compliant way, and provide a hard reference that
is trackable.
<ACK-PDL.txt>
That said - the TPJ reference is hard to retrieve. Maybe we ought
to write a PASP paper!

Hi Karl,
No problem, happy to do both. Just a little unclear on how to
do it. The journal reference is simple - it's just like any
other paper. However, I am not sure how to do this one:
K. Glazebrook, J. Brinchmann, J. Cerney, C. DeForest, D.
Hunt, T. Jenness, T. Luka, R. Schwebel, and C. Soeller 2006:
The Perl Data Language, v. 2.4.3, available online: http://
pdl.perl.org
I don't think journals go for citing websites - I think they
like to put URLs in the footnotes. But I don't think we can put
all the authors in the footnotes. Perhaps I can say:
We used PDL (Glazebrook \& Economou 1997)\footnote{The Perl Data
Language has been developed by K. Glazebrook, J. Brinchmann, J.
Cerney, C. DeForest, D. Hunt, T. Jenness, T. Luka, R. Schwebel,
and C. Soeller and can be obtained from http://pdl.perl.org}
Sounds good?
