Thanks Andrew.
The name is carefully chosen so that it does not clash with existing python modules in pypi database and googlecode. Unfortunately, pycas is so popular that at least two projects take this name! Since this module is only visible inside python to portable channel access server, the confusion is negligible I hope.
I would consult PSI office and complete the copyright statement.
