i didnt say ANYTHING about how anything SHOULD be, at any point. brief synopsis: leonardo asked about which licence versions were associated with eggs, focusing primarily on the gpled eggs in the repo, and asked about how to
obtain information relating to versions where it wasnt obvious. i responded and said that most currently maintained eggs are bsd, except for yours. this was not a criticism, merely a statement of fact. i then suggested methods to find which licences were valid for which eggs.in what way was anyone saying anything about how eggs are contributed, requirements of contribution, how anything should be, or any form of
restriction or change to the status quo? -elf On Thu, 14 Feb 2008, Ivan Raikov wrote:
One of the aspects of Chicken that appeals to me is the relative freedom we have in contributing eggs. The lack of strict requirements about license, documentation, etc., perhaps mirrors the minimalistic nature of Scheme itself (or R5RS, I should say). When somebody starts making statements about how "all" or "most" eggs are this and that, or how "all" or "most" eggs should become this or that, I get annoyed, because I am rather fond of the creative chaos of Chicken. So let's not have stupid arguments about "most" and "all", but remember to leave some breathing room for everyone in the Chicken community. -Ivan Elf <address@hidden> writes:a general question for the public, as this is the second time in three days where this has happened: when did 'most' start meaning 'all'? i missed that communique. -elf
