Dear Camd Team,

Am an ASE user, who want to build an educational, completely free and  
an open source GUI for DFTB+ in JAVA for Windows OS (under GPL  
license). There, in that project, I wish to add some parts of ASE  
modules to calculate, say, for NEB.

But I got informed that, ASE has LGPLv2.1+ license. Here is my doubt:  
Can I Copy (some parts of -) ASE?s source code into my project? If  
NOT, Can I at least use an equivalent translation version of the  
modules in some other laguages (say, F90)?

I will be grateful if Camd could provide an answer.

Thanks in advance


GPK Mohan
