It may have something to do with the software not being freely
distributable. This is from the LICENSE document in the tarball:

| THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND FOR THIS SOFTWARE. THIS SOFTWARE IS
| FOR NON-COMMERCIAL USE ONLY.
|
| Please contact Data Fellows <http://www.datafellows.com/>; for
| commercial licensing.

The document goes on to wrap non-commercial use up quite tightly,
including the prohibition for use in administration of educational
systems. You should probably look at the file yourself to be sure you
qualify for a license.
