TERMS OF USE

This software is copyright Robert Meyer and University of Wisconsin-Madison. A free license is granted to use or modify but only for uses which are non-commercial and non-clinical. In particular, clinical decisions should not be made based on the use of SCIRT. Use of SCIRT to design or test commercial products is not granted without an agreement with University of Wisconsin-Madison. Any user-modified software must retain the original copyright and notice of changes if redistributed. Any user-contributed software (not modifications of existing files) will retain the copyright terms of the contributor. No warranty or fitness is expressed or implied for any purpose whatsoever--use at your own risk."

In other words, research use is completely free from fees or restrictions on code use with the limitations stated above. Use for making clinical patient care decisions is explicitly forbidden.

Use to design or test commercial products is explicitly forbidden without an agreement with University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Although users are granted the right to modify any SCIRT routine in any way, this right does not include commercial or clinical use, as outlined above.

The philosophy here is that institutions should not feel that contributing 'open source' code and tools to interoperate with SCIRT compromises potential commercial rights.

All the files supplied from University of Wisconsin-Madison have these same copyright terms, whether explicitly written in the file or not.
