[Dune-devel] Removing support for PSurface and AmiraMesh

[Martin Weiser]

Hi Christoph,

thanks for the info and the offer. In Kaskade 7, we make occasional use of 
AmiraMesh, but none of PSurface. We don't distribute binaries, and therefore 
it would be perfectly fine for us just to distribute the AmiraMesh module 
unchanged (or updated separately) as source code together with Kaskade 7 - for 
which, as far as I know, no license change is necessary.

@Oliver: We had to use the "ZIB Academic License" - not fully open source 
since commercial use requires a separate agreement.

Yours
Martin
