I've tracked down 2 people in PLASMA who have ICT/college Mathematica licenses. Only half of plasma are around today so let's say we have 4 licenses through college. These people use Mathematica now and again; not having it would be an inconvenience but would not compromise their research too much (i.e. they would have to learn how to rewrite their script/algorithm in, e.g., Maple). 2 people have private licenses on their own personal machines.

There are at least 5 people in PHOT using Mathematica.

Not many people use it in PHOT. I've just sent out a request asking the views of any that do.

David,
Mathematica is absolutely essential for parts of QOLS, particularly the Centre for Cold Matter. They would get very angry, indeed, if anyone would try to stop them using it.

Dear Computing Reps,
The Wolfram lawyers are being wholly unreasonable and so Jo asked me if we could possibly do without any Wolfram products in the department. I replied that whilst this would be fine for me (I have access via CERN) I suspect that many would not be able to work effectively without it. I did however, say that I would ask this group in case I was wrong. So, was I wrong?
All the best, david
