thevenin dependency notice

This tutorial depends exactly on thevenin-cirq = 0.5.0 and thevenin-types = 0.5.0; both pull the thevenin 0.5.0 simulation engine. No thevenin source is copied or modified here.

As checked on 2026-07-27:

  • Cargo metadata declares BSD-3-Clause;
  • the upstream repository README states BSD-3-Clause;
  • the published crate archive does not contain a LICENSE file or the BSD notice text.

The first two items are an explicit license declaration by the publisher. The missing notice is nevertheless a packaging and provenance defect because a redistributor needs the applicable copyright notice to satisfy BSD retention conditions. This repository therefore:

  1. pins the exact dependency version;
  2. does not vendor or redistribute its source;
  3. records the omission instead of silently treating it as resolved;
  4. should re-check the published archive before updating the dependency.

This notice documents engineering provenance; it is not legal advice.
