ANN: SCF released GPL

[hg]

Dear all,

I am releasing much of my work including SCF (Cross platform Smart Card
library & Tools written in Python) to the GPL license.

If interested, go to http://www.SnakeCard.com/Source.html

I am moving the doc to doxygen and cleaning up the code, so what you'll
see there will change in the course of the next few weeks - basically
can only get meaningful info on the classes hierarchy at this stage.
I am looking for a free subversion server resource to put the code ...
if you know of any.

Some of the work there will be windows-only related (GINA, activeX
components ... and not coded in Python) and the applets JavaCard and
BasicCard ... I'm releasing these during the next few days.

Regards,

hg

Does it have to be SVN? I think Savannah and Sourceforge both still
use CVS. I'm not sure what Launchpad uses. I guess if necessary I
could set up a subversion repo for you on a server that I use. I've
been wanting to put together some GNU security tools under the name
Fort GNOX, so maybe this can be a start.

Check out code.google.com -- it has a hosting service for open source
code, too, these days (and it IS subversion).

Nope CVS would be fine ... I guess I've made the switch in my head.

I'll check SourceForge.

Thanks.

It's Google, though, so it requires people to register with Google to work on
the project. Might be a blocker for some contributors.

At least SF has usable Subversion support by now. You can choose between CVS
or SVN.

Berlios works alike, and it's Europe based.

Launchpad is Ubuntu, meaning it uses Bazaar. It has SVN integration, though.

Why would you want to use CVS rather than Subversion?

Those sites have been around since before SVN. CVS was what was
available, so they used it. Using CVS for something new would be
silly, of course.
