SIAM uses a non-commercial license:

   You are NOT ALLOWED to take money for the distribution or use of
   either one of these files or a changed version of it, except for a
   nominal charge for copying etc.
   

TeXLive cannot distribute NC packages.  I wrote a column about this,
by the way, https://www.tug.org/TUGboat/Pres/tb130pres.pdf

Good luck
