Dear Sungho,

I have been using your toolbox for different purposes and I would like to make the appropriate references to it. For that, I would like to ask you the following:

1) Should I call it "NIRS-SPM" or "SPM for fNIRS"? The Society for fNIRS had early this year announced in its website this toolbox as an update of NIRS-SPM (http://fnirs.org/resources/software/), but I am not sure if it should be referenced with another name (e.g. "SPM for fNIRS") in order to be distinguished from its previous version.

2) On what concerns software release, do you recommend adding any particular date information to it in the reference?

3) And what would be the best publication reference for it? So far I had included the NIRS-SPM paper (Ye et al 2009) in my drafts, but now I've just seen in the summary of the NITRC page for this toolbox that the suggested reference would rather be the paper on sensor space group analysis published earlier this year.

I just wanted to clarify the points outlined above in order to avoid any misunderstanding between toolboxes, versions and publications.

Sincerely,
Guilherme
