It is indeed our intention that this notice (including the third paragraph) is fully preserved if (parts of) our code are ever reused in RAVE (or any other project). I hope this doesn't lead to any problems, or any reluctance to reuse the code. If it does, we need to see if we can work anything out, but for now this is a requirement that my employer (i.e. SURFnet) imposes for these kinds of code releases.
