Acknowledgement of credits for original author
ucirello opened this issue · comments
Hi,
In https://github.com/cirello-io/ezwg/commit/89b2f1710da9e680a6ce07e8f22f85ea345b0bdc#r39533635 it seems that you express discomfort with the fact that I forked and renamed my fork.
What I have in mind will make my fork deep differently than your original. Yet, I believe in giving credits to original authors is important and necessary.
I opened an issue to address the problem.

But, I think you should somehow express here through license changes or some other device what constitutes an acceptable fork or not. The MIT license is a bit vague regarding attribution to end-users. Perhaps, you could opt to slightly stricter license, like Apache v2 that has explicit attribution requirements written down.
In https://github.com/cirello-io/ezwg/commit/89b2f1710da9e680a6ce07e8f22f85ea345b0bdc#r39534331 you mentioned that you got offended by my rebranding (according to your words) of my fork.
In respect, I am removing it altogether. No offense intended.
I am sorry.
Fork deleted. Again I apologize for the trouble I caused.
Ok, thank you. If you'd like to discuss your vision of dsnet, I'd be happy to via twitter DM. Contributions via PRs and discussion are still welcome; I'd rather improve the current project if our ideas are aligned.
Edit: For the avoidance of doubt, if you'd have approached me first it wouldn't have been quite as offensive.

I can say that they are not. Even if they were, your reaction to my fork indicates a fundamental lack of shared values. I wish you good luck with dsnet. It is useful to the ecosystem, and definitely inspiring for me.
