@Morten: Kenny is right, most of my projects are under GPL.

The main difference between GPL and BSD is whether or not proprietary projects can take your code, modify it and compile it into their binaries without giving you any credit (other than not removing the attribution comments from the original code). GPL forces people to give the code back to the community. So I prefer it. :)

@Kenny: Nope, haven’t really used git yet. I sort of decided that my next project (whatever it shall be) will go on github and I will force myself to learn it by doing. :)

@Morten: jtwitt is under GPL v2, same as the one on github.

@Dax: Throw it on github, then others can easily fork it, and you can pull back in the changes you like. Then set your ohloh account to load it, and you can track stats and see things like your comment ratio.

@Luke: Spend any time looking at git since you said you might in April? Based on your posts I think you’d like it, and if you need a hand feel free to email me directly.

I have several proof-of-concept style projects that I have done in my spare time in the last few years that I’ve always though about just throwing up on google code under one of the open source licenses. I probalby will never extend my code past the initial work and maybe someone else will decide to take it futher. It might be fun to see if anything will come of it after a year or so.

I LOVE when I see my Free code end up in surprising places. To find it, usually use one of the code search engines. Shown in the post below:

Wow, that’s pretty cool! Too bad I don’t have any code to share :P Maybe someday…

I’m curious, what license did you release it under? And do you think it matters if it’s released under the GPL or under a BSD-like license?
