| Message-ID | <mailman.1807.1349374225.27098.python-list@python.org> |
Dear list, Due to lack of energy and resources i'm really sad to announce the removal of notmm from pypi and bitbucket. I deleted also my account from bitbucket as it was not really useful for me. notmm will continue to be accessible from my master site at http://gthc.org/dist/notmm until the server get down, as I cannot find money to pay for the hosting of notmm.org, neither anyone to encourage the project so it can grow further. I have tried to develop a coherent extension for Django using the open source model but I'm afraid to have been bitten by its failure to encourage a free market over one dictated by profit and the use of cheap tricks to compete unfairly with perhaps too much openness. I always will also continue to love and use free softwares but sadly it seems asking for a little fairness is too much asked to competitors dedicated in stealing and subverting my work for their own advantages... I therefore refuse to continue any longer being mocked by competitors asking excessive prices for having a broken Internet dictated by a few companies and decide the content I should be visiting. Shall you have anything you wish saying I'll be open to discuss further on this list. I wish also to thanks the supporters of the project who have invested time and energy into my business and dedication to the notmm project. Best wishes, Etienne -- Etienne Robillard Green Tea Hackers Club Fine Software Carpentry For The Rest Of Us! http://gthc.org/ erob@gthcfoundation.org "If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich." -John F.

Well that's just rude. Even if you don't intend to maintain the software any more, why are you removing it from pypi? Since you say you are a fan of Open Source software, just flag it as unmaintained and leave it for somebody else to pick up. If you are going to abandon the project, release it on PyPI with a dual MIT and GPL licence, and let it be taken over by somebody else. If you were looking for sympathy here, starting off by removing your project from free hosting, then complaining that you can't pay for the non-free hosting, was NOT the right way to do so. By the way, the latest version of notmm (0.4.4) has an empty licence file. No licence means that everyone using it is unlicenced and therefore infringing your copyright. -- Steven

Err not exactly.. :) Firstly notmm is still ISC licensed and available from here http://gthc.org/notmm/dist/. Secondly i don't want to leave it to the hands of people without I can get a single dime for the work did, however some peoples don't seem to get this point yet.. My apologies if you feel this removal was rude anyways. Feel free to contact me again if you need further clarification or would like to take over maintainership of a branch for a minimal fee.

The notmm-0.4.4/LICENSE file is a link to the notmm-0.4.4/notmm-0.4.4-rc7/LICENSE file, unless your archiver fails to reconstruct the link when untarring, in which case the former ends up as an empty file (but the latter is still present).

The 0.4.4 release is old, however, so you might really got a wrong tarball. :-) Cheers, Etienne -- Etienne Robillard Green Tea Hackers Club Fine Software Carpentry For The Rest Of Us! http://gthc.org/ erob@gthcfoundation.org

I think it is OK to have some string attatched in those open source projects. Nowadays the software industry is just like the perfume and prtinting and the audio-video entaertainment industry. The replication cost is so low. Don't forget the lawsuites in Facebook about the participants charged the founder in the courts.
