Comment:
NLopt combines several free/open-source nonlinear optimization
libraries by various authors. See the COPYING, COPYRIGHT, and README
files in the subdirectories for the original copyright and licensing
information of these packages.
.
The compiled NLopt library, i.e. the combined work of all of the
included optimization routines, is licensed under the conjunction of
all of these licensing terms. Currently, the most restrictive terms
are for the code in the "luksan" directory, which is licensed under
the GNU Lesser General Public License (GNU LGPL), version 2.1 or
later (see luksan/COPYRIGHT).
.
That means that the compiled NLopt library is governed by the terms of
the LGPL.
Other portions of NLopt, including any modifications to the
abovementioned packages, are licensed under the standard "MIT License".

The StoGO source code on the authors' web site has no copyright or
license information, but I (Steven G. Johnson) contacted the author
K. Madsen for clarification and he gave me permission to distribute
it under the MIT license above. See the correspondence below:

The MIT licence is ok with me, and so is your copyright suggestion.

Thanks so much for your response!
.
To be open source it needs some specific open-source license to specify
the permissions in legal terms. The simplest open-source license is
probably the MIT license, is this okay?
.
http://opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php
.
Also, I need to know who the authors are for the copyright statement.
Should I list it as:
Copyright (c) 1998 by S. Zertchaninov and K. Madsen ?
.
Thanks again! I will definitely cite it if I publish any results based
on StoGO! (It's one of the few public global-optimization programs that
is able to exploit gradient information.)

Steven G. Johnson
