   In addition to the terms imposed by the QPL, we have one restriction

   <ul>
-  <li> Every publication presenting
-       numerical results obtained with the help of
-       <acronym>deal.II</acronym> shall state the name of the library
-       and its principle authors (at present Wolfgang Bangerth and
-       Guido Kanschat), as well as cite at least one of the papers by these

-  Please note that by this we do not mean to restrict your freedom of
-  publication, but we need external citations to justify our work on
-  the development of the library in regular reviews which our
-  institute has to undergo.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
