Ok. This is a Blog, blog is just a web page where all the content is in reverse chronological order (kinda redundant: a blog in a wiki, but I'll see if this works). You may comment on posts if you like. | Ok.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ConsuML is under [[GPL]] now. This has upsides and downsides and sides that have not yet appearred to me | |||
Downsides: | |||
* Makes forking easier | |||
* Makes development work more susceptible to chaotic phenomenon. I suppose it's perfectly legal to modify the schema outside of the project CVS and still mark it xmlns="http://ns.consumerium.org/consuml/", though this I consider to be extremely bad behaviour and can be counter-measured by checking for xsi:schemaLocation="http://ns.consumerium.org/consuml/ ..." | |||
Upsides: | |||
* Makes forking easier | |||
* Makes development work more dynamic: If some party wants a new feature they can modify the schema to accomondate the new feature and build demo software and that way if their addition makes sense it'll likely be integrated into Consumerium | |||
* If Consumerium fails to realize it's goals maybe some other project can benefit from our work | |||
