Exercise 1: Find the license for a software package (10 minutes)

Imagine that a researcher comes to you and asks whether they can use a particular software package that they found online. One aspect to consider would be its license, if there is one.

Pick a software package from the following list, and try to find out whether it has a license and if so which. The idea is to cover the list together, so let's not all start at the top!

• Kernel Tuner
• nodal-dg
• OpenFOAM
• MATLAB
• COPASI
• Glotaran
• LinkAhead

A few hints:

• The researcher only gave you the name. You'll have to find the code on the Internet first.
• Licenses are not always advertised on a code's website. Try looking somewhere more technical if you can't find it in the documentation.
