Expansion of the demos library. #1

Closed joseedil closed 7 years ago

joseedil commented 7 years ago

I've written additional demos, mainly using the Synchronous MoC.

Also, there is a refactor on the library structure to fit future expansions.

You may want to review the license terms and keep Ingo as the main author.

ingo-sander commented 7 years ago

Did you use a special license? I think we should use BSD3. The whole Haskell community uses this license.

Do you see some problems? Otherwise I can merge it. I trust you!

joseedil commented 7 years ago

No Ingo, I have no problems with BSD license, but you might agree with keeping a list of the contributors on the license file. Also, keeping a nice changelog file would be useful, but that involves having release versions and can be discussed later. Finally, @ugeorge told he is going to run the demos to see if everything is ok before merging the repositories. I see no problems but I have only tested them on my Mac machine.

As concerning the license file, I can see three alternatives to proceed:

  1. one license file with @ingo-sander's name and each application mentioning the actual author.
  2. one license file with a list of authors for copyright, and each application mentioning the actual author.
  3. one license file per application, i.e. each application being copyrighted by its respective author,

The first two alternatives seem appropriate if this repository will continue to be a standalone project, separated from any library. The last alternative would make sense if we merge this repository with a ForSyDe library, where the library itself has different authors than the examples.

A good way to deal with issues regarding both dependencies and licensing is to separate each application as a standalone project (i.e. with an own .cabal file). The drawback may be that the haddock documentation won't be so pretty, but that can be taken care of once we set up a web site template to gather the documentation under one page.
