Like discussed elsewhere, I'm considering starting a public github repository for the LDCad shadow library.
For this I would like some feedback about how to do this best.
I really could use some help deciding about the following things:
- License type
I'm currently using "Free for non commercial use" in all the .dat files, I've decided to change that to something more permissive like "CC BY-SA 4.0" but if someone has an alternative suggestion I'm open to that too.
The problem with this is I will need to contact the people whom contributed shadow info over the years (they are all members of the forum though
)
But worst-case scenario I'll just leave those files out (just about 400 .dat's in total or so)
- Author / change tracking.
Currently I only have a single Author line, but I figure a public repo needs some more information.
I really don't want a part tracker level of tracking, but I guess there should be some rules header wise.
I already made a private repository to do some tests with, so once a license is chosen it will be ready to go.
I also want to add some tools to LDCad to help format / maintain shadow info intended to be donated to the repo.
Any ideas/suggestions about how to get this repo/project started are welcome.
