Any chance to have the code open sourced? We could help you out with pull requests.

💯 I too am confused of why this project is on GitHub if all the code is minified/obfuscated.

kberg commented 4 years ago

It makes the code easy to host for free.

gitfer commented 4 years ago

I think it's a great work. I would like to know if there is any chance to improve/evolve this (if not with PRs at least forking)

I see Gavin McGruddy committing on this repo. I even tried contacting him on Facebook (with posts quoting him on Tapestry groups) and messenger but with no luck 🙄 if you guys wanna try... You might be luckier than me 😊

jparkerweb commented 4 years ago

I totally get it makes the code easy to host for free, I really do, but unless there are plans to monetize this or some future project based on its source, it just smells wrong as a developer to not truly open source it. It would really give this project some legs if the community was allowed to contribute to it. 👨‍💻

There's a possibility you're not going to like this: consider the possibility that your perspective is not the only one, and maybe the wrong approach. It's his hard work, and he gets to choose what and how much he shares. He's got his goals, and it's his prerogative to do what he wants. He's not breaking laws.

LOL, I'm not hurt either way. And of course he is able to do what he wants; Why would he be breaking any laws (very confused by this comment).

Back to it though. My only intention here was to tack on to the existing question of it it would be truly open sourced (it looked as if it was an open question with no answer for quite a while). We are all passionate board games / developers, this much is obvious. If we could contribute to this project we would. Nothing wrong with us simply asking, and no reason to get offended. We just hadn't heard an official reply on the matter.
