I just encountered the Science Code Manifesto, which essentially states
that all computer code used for scientific analysis and modeling should
be available for review. It appears to have started with the Climate
Code Foundation. I encourage you to visit the web site and consider
endorsing the Manifesto.

http://sciencecodemanifesto.org/

Note that this is not specifying open source code, so GAMESS(US),
GAMESS(UK), DALTON etc., as well as open source codes such as PSI3 amd
MPQC satisfies the points of the manifesto. Of course some other quantum
chemistry codes do not. I think we should be putting pressure on the
authors of such codes to meet the criteria in this manifesto.

Brian.
