 MacPorts [http://distfiles.macports.org/pgplot/ mirrors the pgplot
 distfiles], as it does automatically for most other ports as well.

 On the [http://www.astro.caltech.edu/~tjp/pgplot/#copyright pgplot
 homepage] it states:

 > The source code and documentation are copyrighted by California
 Institute of Technology, and may not be redistributed or placed on public
 Web servers without permission.

 Have we ever asked for this permission? If so, and it was granted, a
 statement to that effect should be added in a comment in the pgplot
 portfile, near the master_sites line.

 If we have not asked for this permission, we should ask for it now.

 If we have asked, and permission was denied or no response was given, then
 we should ask the Mac OS Forge administrator to add a mirroring exception
 for pgplot and to remove existing pgplot distfiles from our servers.
