          R A P P T U R E - rapid application infrastructure
======================================================================

 Rappture is the Rapid APPlication infrastrucTURE, a toolkit for
 building scientific applications with a minimum of fuss and bother.

 It was developed by the Network for Computational Nanotechnology
 (NCN), an NSF-funded project creating cyberinfrastructure in support
 of a science gateway for nanotechnology simulation.

 Rappture is a freely available, open source package.  You can
 do virtually anything you like with it, such as modifying it,
 redistributing it, and selling it either in whole or in part.
 But you can't prevent anyone else from doing the same, and you
 must keep all copyright notices intact, so the ownership and
 authorship is clear.

 See the file "license.terms" for complete information.
