Dear all, I already contacted Steven Johnson about this matter and he told me that "relicensing the Cubature code is not feasible", but he agrees on including this in SciPy if the SciPy community agrees to include a GNU GPL licensed software there. Otherwise I will probably create a separate Python package for it, ideally with a pip installer, as suggested by him. Greetings, Saullo 2013/8/24 <scipy-dev-request@scipy.org>

I noticed on the mailing list that someone wants to put cubature into scipy. You will need to ask Steven Johnson before this can happen because scipy is licensed in a way that does not allow it to accept GPL code. Actually now that I read more, this will probably not happen anyway because cubature itself depends on multiple GPL-licensed codes. http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/scipy-dev/2013-August/thread.html http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/Cubature

I took a number of his classes at MIT, and I'm fairly sure he'd be on board with this usage. He seemed pretty supportive of SciPy.
