Therefore, if R-Quant includes GSL >R-Quant should be GPL-ed too. Well, R-Quant includes the whole source (actually the whole distribution) of the GSL. Thus I thought we comply with the requirements. Such distribution is quite convinient for the end users since they do not need to worry about GSL download/install. There are three ways to solve this "problem" - make a special agreement with GSL/GNU team (such possibility is stated on GPL pages) - remove GSL distribution from R-Quant package so that all interested users can download/install it on their own. C++ wrappers will still remain. - remove GSL completely from R-Quant project. What's your suggestion?
