The software is no longer available to all scientists wishing to use it in certain territories. This breaches the journal’seditorial policy on software availability [2] which has been in effect since the time of publication. The other authors of the article, Arndt von Haeseler and Korbinian Strimmer, have no control over the licensing of the software and support the retraction of this article.
