Beginning with release 0.9, a number (ok, a small number, at least initially) of example programs are distributed in the "ccl:examples;" directory of the source distribution. See the README-OPENMCL-EXAMPLES text file in that directory for information about prerequisites and usage.
Some of the example programs are derived from C examples in textbooks, etc.; in those cases, the original author and work are cited in the source code.
It may be a stretch to imply that the examples have a great deal of value as "intellectual property", but I might as well say this. Unless the original author or contributor claims other rights, you're free to incorporate any of this example code or derivative thereof in any of you're own works without restriction. In doing so, you agree that the code was provided "as is", and that no other party is legally or otherwise responsible for any consequences of your decision to use it.
If you've developed OpenMCL examples that you'd like to see added to the distribution, please let me know. Any such contributions would be welcome and appreciated (as would bug fixes and improvements.)
