Hi, > By the way, is it possible to have more then one maintainer for the code? for CVS access, there's no problem; John or Otto should just add a new entry in the AVAIL file... also SF release system will work with multiple maintainers. however wxCode database currently allows only a single registered maintainer for each component... however, it could be useful to register multiple maintainers. However, it would require various work - we would need to change the "maintainerid" field from INT to SET, I think. Another solution could be to add another column: "maintainer2id" for a second maintainer (which should be enough). However, I'll not be able to implement this feature until I return back from my holidays ;-) Francesco > John Labenski wrote: > >> On 7/27/05, Jorgen Bodde <sol...@xs...> wrote: >> >>>>>> also I see that the following components have no source or header >>>>>> files >>>>>> in the CVS, just a "website" folder: >>>>>> >>>>>> treemultictrl -- this was just added two weeks ago IIRC >>> >>> >>> I am having problems with the stupid CVS interface of SF.net.

John, thanks for your insight. I never thought about the cygwin solution=20 and that when I used it lots in the old days ;-) I am really curious what this issue is. Your corrupted CVS store makes=20 sense, however I always deleted the old data completely before=20 re-attemtping. I can't wait to get this issue solved, because it has been some time now=20 that wxTreeMultiCtrl needs to be checked in. By the way, is it possible to have more then one maintainer for the code? - Jorgen John Labenski wrote: > On 7/27/05, Jorgen Bodde <sol...@xs...> wrote: >=20 >>>>>also I see that the following components have no source or header fi= les >>>>>in the CVS, just a "website" folder: >>>>> >>>>>treemultictrl -- this was just added two weeks ago IIRC >> >>I am having problems with the stupid CVS interface of SF.net.

Nothing happens anymore for hours I also had problems with WinCvs one time, and only on one repository. After long time searching, I only found the solution to use ssh protocol instead of :pserver: And some time after, I saw that the problem was my internet provider: when I used Cvs via my telephone line (RTC) I got no problem, with ADSL I could'nt checkout properly: it worked for some files, and then it waited, the it hangs. The pserver protocol seemed to be partialy blocked by the internet provider. Didier |

Don't worry about it Franchesco, I am really glad you have been so patient in helping me sofar.

I don't understand what can be the cause of your CVS problems; your CVSROOT is set to: :ssh:jo...@cv...:/cvsroot/wxcode ? anyway, if the files are created, you can terminate CVS client using brute force and then work on the files which have been checked-out; isn't it ? > I will investigate further, but now that my 5th day of trying failed, I > lost a bit of my interest in keeping trying.

I know that SF also creates nightly CVS tarballs for wxCode at: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cvstarballs/wxcode-cvsroot.tar.bz2 but I don't know how to use that tarballs (they are some sort of CVS backups which keep trace of all the modifications on all the files of the repository...)... does anyone know ?

Hi, I added the (Want to be the maintainer of this component ?) link in the complist for the unmaintained components... I also changed the possible choices for the status column to ALPHA, BETA, STABLE removing the UNMAINTAINED entry so that also unmaintained components can now have a status set. This helps to understand which is the status of a unmaintained component... Last, I updated the categories field using the WX guide to the following choices: 'managed windows', 'miscellaneous windows', 'common dialogs', 'controls', 'window layout', 'networking', 'stream classes', 'database classes', 'miscellaneous'... So please update your component info using the new available categories or mail me if you would like a new category to be added... also I see that the following components have no source or header files in the CVS, just a "website" folder: treemultictrl wxbetterdialog wxbzipstream * wxhttpserver wxlistctrlex wxstreammerger * has only a file release Maybe these should be really removed ?

It's not that they'll be integrated into wxWidgets, but that they're usable= .=20 I think Ryan's idea is best, they can dual licence it if they like, but one of them has to the wxWindows license. As he pointed out, I completely missed the ramifications of the BSD license clause and I'm sure it can get much uglier than that. I've seen quite a few licenses with catches like, "for commercial use you must merely contact me...". What if you're not around anymore? The more I think about it, we should be fairly strict about licensing since it'll only cause problems later. How about the wording below, I think we need a compelling explanation why we want the wxWindows license and a note about 3rd party libs since it's bound to come up as a question eventually. "Each component must be made available under the wxWindows license. This is to ensure that there will be no misunderstandings by users of your code or clashes between components that may rely on each other. Remember; this code repository is designed to facilitate code reuse. Small third party libraries that you may include or link with your component will (of course) maintain their original license and you should note that in your documentation." Regards, John Labenski |

Also remember that the original BSD license had the advertising clause and would be unacceptable Ryan |

I fully agree.

In my opinion the components in wxCode should all have the wxWidgets license. This would take from the user of a wxCode component the burden to check several different licenses whether they allow the planned use or not. AFAIK the wxWidgets license is very liberal and allows commercial use. What more is needed? Maybe a developer could license his component under several licenses?

Hi, >>6 - You've already got sourceforge release notes for each update.... you >>could also give the person news access also to notify sf of thier new >>release well, I strongly encourage all wxCode mantainers to use SF news system to inform others of their updates. Currently, you'll see that Ulrich Telle has already folled my advice (see wxSQLite3 v1.0 released news)... however, that should be written in the wxCode maintainer guide; I'll try to write all the missing FAQ entries and TODO items of the wxCode website in this weekend... > This is just a suggestion, I think a small note to the wx-code mailing > list would go a long way to generate interest.

I'll check into this. sorry John; I do not understand what you mean... are you saying that you prefer a message to wxcode-users mailing list on new releases ? I think that a mantainer should do: - a new SF entry - a message to wxcode-users - a message to wxusers when he is releasing its new component... >>8 - I really think this should be something like wxWidgets or something >>compatable and less restrictive > > > This is just to discourage GPL'd stuff.

Maybe this is the best. I wrote that any component should use the "wxWidgets" license only because wx developers told me that an important point in moving contrib stuff to wxCode is that all the sources at wxCode must be easily integrable in wxWidgets, eventually. So wxWidgets-license should be used for the components that hope to be integrated in wx... however, I do understand that many other components are not designed to be integrated in wx at all ... so using a license different from wxWidgets one is okay...

It's more inviting to respond to a message *from the author* to ask about a project than start your own new thread not knowing if the author is even checking the list. I think the website has it's own "news" which would suffice, but Francesco would know better.

The wording should be something like, "a license as or more liberal than the wxWindows license." But, we don't want to start flame wars about meaning of the word "liberal" or "restrictive". Either that or just list the acceptable ones, BSD, MIT, zlib/libpng ... but I think that'd create more questions than give answers.

Eventually components may start to rely on other components and because of this, they need to be compatible. Take this one for example, it looks good at first, but has a few gotch-ya's, whose rammifictaions are not immediately clear. http://www.opensource.org/licenses/artistic-license.php How about this: "Each component must be submitted under the wxWindows license or a license that is compatible and less restrictive, such as the BSD, MIT, and zlib/libpng."

Hi, Sorry for not following recent developments here (I think I was the around the 5th registered wxCode dev), but someone at the forum raised an interesting question- http://www.solidsteel.nl/users/wxwidgets/viewtopic.php?p=13677#13677 What's this about a monthly status report? Ryan |
