Hi Darren,
we can't do away with the license, otherwise the hospital would line us all up and shoot us. We won't be able to post a compilable version for a while as we need to get rid of things that we are not allowed to post source for, which is a slow process (that has to go on in peoples' spare time, as we have no dedicated resources for it). I think we will post a "read-only" version that won't compile, or rather, while compile but will have some unresolved symbols in it in the near future. We do have make/configure working locally, so installing on other platforms shouldn't be too bad. We also have installed and run on debian, or at least the MIT version of it.
We also had some rpms, but haven't rebuilt them in a while.
cheers, Bruce

If freesurfer is adopting some kind of open-source license (hoorrah!), can we do away with the requirement for a license file? Are there any components/dependencies of freesurfer that are not open-source?
Does anyone have detailed instructions for a) compiling freesurfer? b) installation of freesurfer on debian?
Is anyone working on creating a debian package for freesurfer? For that matter, has anyone created any rpm packages for freesurfer?
Debian already has a package for minc tools, see http://packages.debian.org/stable/science/minc-tools but this does not include all the MNI tools (eg, n3 and mritotal).
Comments, suggestions all welcome.
Thanks, Darren
