Comment: licensing discussed on https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioc-devel/2011-May/002620.html LIMMA is LGPL-2+ code, and depends on R (GPL-2) and the GNU C library (LGPL-2.1+). Taken as a whole, its license is effectively GPL-2, plus perhaps some additional BSD-like requirements depending on what it uses from the GNU C library.
