Post by J***@t-systems.comHi,
Sourceforge is much misleading, it is bringing people to iPhone and other proprietary
software and hardware through its advertising.
When I went to the European Lisp meetings, I was surprised that many
many devs were using Lisp on Macbooks, running MacOS X. I seriously
doubt Sourceforge led them there. There must be other reasons.
I understand it, as Lisp users are Lisp users, they are not
necessarily GNU users, neither free software users.
As CLISP being a GNU package, could have more freedom oriented
hosting.
Anyway, I am willing to help at list to maintain and improve the
website, in terms of links and other small matters or big matters.
And being the GNU software, I would include at list something like
:license, or (license) and inform users in that initial Welcoming
screen about licensing. As now copyrights are there nicely displayed,
yet, to get the licensing, one need to do the --license argument.
It would be better to say on first screen, something like:
Copyright by xxxxxx people
