[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi Oleg,

Perfect! I wasn't aware there was a license team that could look into this.

I think it would make sense a lot of sense to have the git checkout of
HMCode_test_outputs as a separate package. It seems more HMCode-type
packages exist, which might need access to that repo. I would be more
than happy making these changes.

It does bring up a point I hadn't thought about before: What is the
license of the data? It is only used in the build process, but that data
will be saved by the Software Heritage if I understand correctly. What
do you think?

Secondly, there is a dependency on a git submodule called forutils. I
originally assumed this was code specifically used for python-camb, but
it is included on the Fortran wiki as a separate library (and has an
expat license only, no LGLP3 components).

I have no experience using/packaging Fortran, but it has a Makefile, so
could give it a shot. Should we turn this into a separate package as well?


Best wishes,

Troy
