  This version of MUMPS is provided to you free of charge. It is public
  domain, based on public domain software developed during the Esprit IV
  European project PARASOL (1996-1999) by CERFACS, ENSEEIHT-IRIT and RAL.
  Since this first public domain version in 1999, the developments are
  supported by the following institutions: CERFACS, ENSEEIHT-IRIT, and
  INRIA.

  Main contributors are Patrick Amestoy, Iain Duff, Abdou Guermouche,
  Jacko Koster, Jean-Yves L'Excellent, and Stephane Pralet.
