This software was originally developed by the Billinge group as part
11+
of the Distributed Data Analysis of Neutron Scattering Experiments
12+
(DANSE) project funded by the US National Science Foundation under
13+
grant DMR-0520547. Developments of PDFfit2 were funded by NSF grant
14+
DMR-0304391 in the Billinge group, and with support from Michigan State
15+
University and Columbia University. Any opinions, findings, and conclusions
16+
or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the author(s)
17+
and do not necessarily reflect the views of the respective funding bodies.
18+
Subsequent development was done in the Billinge group at Columbia University
19+
and then in collaboration between the Billinge group at Columbia and Pavol
20+
Juhas at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Moving forward, PDFgui will be
21+
maintained as a community project with contributions welcomed from many people.
22+
23+
If you use this program to do productive scientific research that leads
24+
to publication, we ask that you acknowledge use of the program by citing
25+
the following paper in your publication:
26+
27+
C. L. Farrow, P. Juhas, J. W. Liu, D. Bryndin, E. S. Bozin,
28+
J. Bloch, Th. Proffen and S. J. L. Billinge, PDFfit2 and

30+
crystals, J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 19, 335219 (2007)

Up to the release 1.1.2 (February 2017) the copyright was held by
33+
the institutions that hosted the work as follows:
34+
Copyright 2006-2007, Board of Trustees of Michigan State University,
35+
Copyright 2008-2012, Board of Trustees of Columbia University in the
36+
city of New York.
37+
Copyright 2013, Brookhaven National Laboratory (Copyright holder
38+
indicated in each source file).
39+
40+
As of February 2017, and the 1.1.2 release, PDFgui has moved to a shared copyright model.
41+
42+
PDFgui uses a shared copyright model. Each contributor maintains copyright over their
43+
contributions to PDFgui. But, it is important to note that these contributions are
44+
typically only changes to the repositories. Thus, the PDFgui source code, in its entirety,
45+
is not the copyright of any single person or institution. Instead, it is the collective
46+
copyright of the entire PDFgui Development Team. If individual contributors want to
47+
maintain a record of what changes/contributions they have specific copyright on, they
48+
should indicate their copyright in the commit message of the change, when they commit
49+
the change to one of the PDFgui repositories.
50+
51+
The PDFgui Development Team is the set of all contributors to the PDFgui project.
52+
A full list can be obtained from the git version control logs.
