I don't think that is part of the license. After the license there is first a request to send in comments and bugs to a specific address, then a request to register yourself as user, then this request: If you use Singular or parts thereof in a project and/or publish results that were partly obtained using SINGULAR, we ask you to cite SINGULAR and inform us thereof - see `http://www.singular.uni-kl.de/how_to_cite.html', for information on how to cite Singular. I'm no native english speaker, and I think those who have written this are neither. But this looks much like it is a request and no condition on use (or copying/modifying). There are licencse problems with the omalloc library included, but it looks like its author already relicenced it, so it will most likely be fixed in the next version. Hochachtungsvoll, Bernhard R.
