ACADEMIC USER AGREEMENT
|
|
|
|
Please read the entire agreement, fill in the information in the
|
|
indicated positions (such as "NAME:"), and return the entire document
|
|
to the indicated people. Please send the document as the message--not
|
|
as an attachment.
|
|
|
|
Phrap: A program for assembling DNA sequence data.
|
|
|
|
Swat: A program for searching one or more DNA or protein query sequences
|
|
against a sequence database, using (an efficient implementation of) the
|
|
Smith-Waterman-Gotoh algorithm.
|
|
|
|
Cross_Match: A general-purpose utility based on Swat for comparing any
|
|
two sets of (long or short) DNA sequences.
|
|
|
|
Phred: A program that reads DNA sequencer trace data, calls bases,
|
|
assigns quality values to the bases, and writes the base calls and quality
|
|
values to output files.
|
|
|
|
Consed: A program for viewing and editing Phrap assemblies.
|
|
|
|
To receive any of these programs you will need to agree to the following
|
|
conditions. They should be taken seriously!
|
|
|
|
1) You agree to read the documentation. We welcome feedback on any
|
|
inaccuracies.
|
|
|
|
2) You agree to report any bugs to us. (To fix bugs, we will need
|
|
from you a dataset and a procedure that reproduces the problem; but do
|
|
not send datasets without first emailing us to describe the nature of
|
|
the bug.)
|
|
|
|
3) You agree not to make the programs (including source code,
|
|
executables, or any part thereof, in modified or unmodified form)
|
|
available to anyone outside your group, and not to put them where they
|
|
may be accessible to outside individuals without your direct knowledge
|
|
(e.g. on a computer to which people outside your group have login
|
|
privileges). The documentation however may be freely distributed.
|
|
Refer any requests for the programs to the authors. If you are
|
|
operating a computer facility which provides access to several
|
|
independent investigators, you agree to set the permissions on the
|
|
executables and source code to allow execute but not read access, so
|
|
that the programs may not be copied. Investigators who want copies of
|
|
the software for their own use must return a separate copy of this
|
|
agreement.
|
|
|
|
4) You agree not to use the programs for any commercial purpose,
|
|
including but not limited to commercially restricted sequencing
|
|
(defined as sequencing for which a company retains patenting or
|
|
licensing rights regarding the sequence, or the right to restrict or
|
|
delay dissemination of the sequence; with the sole exception that
|
|
sequencing is not considered to be commercially restricted if it is
|
|
federally funded and the investigators adopt the data release policies
|
|
endorsed at the Wellcome Trust-sponsored Bermuda meeting,
|
|
i.e. immediate release of data as it is generated).
|
|
[If you wish to obtain the software for commercially restricted
|
|
sequencing or any other commercial purposes, you will need to execute
|
|
a separate licensing agreement with the University of Washington and
|
|
pay a fee. In that case please contact:

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: I agree to the license.
|
|
|
|
PROGRAMS: Which programs you want (phrap,cross_match, and swat are
|
|
distributed together). You must cc the message to each appropriate
|
|
individual (Brent Ewing, David Gordon, and/or Phil Green) at the email
|
|
addresses below so that they will know to send you the appropriate
|
|
program.
|
|
|
|
PROGRAMS:
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
PROGRAMS: phred, phrap, consed

|
INSTITUTION: Your academic or government institution (give full name,
|
|
not abbreviation)

|
Example:
|
|
DEPARTMENT: Department of Hematology
|
|
|
|
EMAIL: Your email address for all future correspondence. Ideally this
|
|
should be a Unix computer running a generic mail program, since
|
|
several of the programs are sent as uuencoded files which may be
|
|
corrupted by some mail programs.
|
|
If this address is not at the institution & department listed above,
|
|
please explain the discrepancy.

OS: (Consed requestors only) Which platform(s) you want Consed for:
|
|
solaris 2.5.1, solaris 2.6, solaris 2.7 (solaris 7), solaris 8,
|
|
solaris 9, digital unix 4.0 (or better), hp-ux 11.x, sgi irix 6.2,
|
|
6.3, 6.4, or 6.5, linux (normal 32 bit) (Redhat 7.1-1 or better),
|
|
linux (Itanium), linux (AMD64), ibm aix 5.2 (or better), macosx 10.2
|
|
(Darwin kernel 6.0) (or better), or solaris-intel (2.8 or better).

OS:
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
OS: hpux
|
|
|
|
Note: Consed is not available for PC's running Windows, XP, NT, or
|
|
2000.
|
|
|
|
IP: (Consed requestors only) The ip address of the computer on which
|
|
you will be running a web browser to download consed. This does not
|
|
have to be the same computer as the one on which you will run consed.
|
|
Please view page
|
|
http://bozeman.mbt.washington.edu/consed/find_ip_address.html
|
|
which will tell you what my computer thinks is your ip address.
|
|
|
|
(Even if you think you know your ip address, firewalls and proxies can
|
|
cause your browser to transmit a different ip address, and thus my
|
|
webserver would deny you access to consed. So it would be a good idea
|
|
to view the page above and send me the ip address it shows, even if
|
|
this isn't your real ip address.)
|
|
|
|
IP:
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
IP: 123.49.74.80
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want Consed/Autofinish, you must include OS and IP (above).
|
|
Consed cannot be obtained without them.
|
|
|
|
Please return this entire agreement so it is clear what you are
|
|
agreeing to.
|
|
|
|
Please send all of this, including the agreement, as part of the
|
|
email message--not as an attachment.
|
|
|
|
Send it to each of the relevant individuals below:
|
|
|
|
Contacts for obtaining the programs and for questions, bug reports,
|
|
