It was written by Thomas Williams, Colin Kelley, Russell Lang, Dave Kotz, John Campbell, Gershon Elber, Alexander Woo and many others. Despite its name, gnuplot is not related to the GNU project or the FSF in any but the most peripheral sense. It was designed completely independently and is not covered by the General Public License. However, the FSF has decided to distribute gnuplot as part of the GNU system, because it is useful, redistributable software.
