AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

Hello,

Debian packaging of AFNI seems to be stalled by the license of the 3DEdge library which is unfortunate because this keeps all of AFNI out of the Debian/Ubuntu repositories.

[bugs.debian.org]

Apparently the 3DEdge license does not permit redistribution. Additionally the non-commercial use restriction is not compatible with the GPLv2 licenses of AFNI and GTS.

My thought is that 3DEdge can be removed from the Debian package so that the rest of AFNI/SUMA can be released. This affects 3dedge3 and 3dSkullStrip (I believe 3dSkullStrip already has flags to disable the use of 3DEdge--my thought is that they will become non-optional defaults with warnings to annouce this deviation from the core).

Opinions?
