Re: [Gnumed-devel] Offer to share working wxPython/Python GUI

Dear Christoph,

when you first offered your code a few months back I expressed
keen interest. Unfortunately you haven't had time yet to put
it up somewhere. The interest is still very much there and I'd
like to get my hands on your code.

Have you signed to be responsible to *update* them or have you
signed to be responsible for always handing in billed dental
procedures produced by properly updated modules ? In the
latter case there's no problem opening up the code (in
principle, although the KZBV may not understand that). It
could work like the BSD model (not license): You get to keep
authority over what code goes into *your* tree but you let
others have a play with *their* copy of your tree. Your tree
would be the reference tree. You would own nobody but yourself
any obligation to keep your tree updated as required and other
people *may* sync with you or not *but not check in anything
into YOUR tree*. Patches would have to go into your tree via
yourself.

Please do take a look at the code we already have (and use!)
for that kind of thing. Ask me for clarification as I wrote
large parts of it.
