Software license for CAMA

CAMA comes with a license that may need some explanation. The conditions for the use of CAMA are specified below. The first condition for using CAMA is trivial, and will not cause any trouble, I hope. However, the second condition may raise some eyebrows. The reason to include this condition is to ensure that users will contact me before using the results in a publication. With CAMA there are about 101 ways to shoot yourself in the foot, and this condition will help me to check that CAMA is used correctly, and that the results can be trusted. If the use of CAMA is a minor part of a publication, then a simple acknowledgement will suffice, but this decision is mine to make. , 2006, KNMI.
