sourceforge project should be closed or redirect to github #1126

Jimbolino commented 6 years ago

untill today the first hit in google is the sourceforge project page: https://sourceforge.net/projects/transgui/

I think a lot of users, including me, are still using the old version because nowhere does it mention this github.

I'm not sure if @leonsoft-kras has permission on that?

leonsoft-kras commented 6 years ago

I don't know how to make this version in Google first.

We have no relation to the version of sourceforge project. This version is accompanied by the author of the program (Yuri Sidorov, as far as I understand).

Jimbolino commented 6 years ago

So Yuri Sidorov is the original creater, owner of the sourceforge page, but is not affiliated with the project anymore?

PeterDaveHello commented 6 years ago

@Jimbolino this is the forked version

mauromol commented 5 years ago

The project name here is Transmission Remote GUI. So, this does not sound like a fork, but rather like the continuation of the original project. If this is a fork, not endorsed by the original author, I think it should be called in some other way, to avoid confusion.

What's the update on this? Are we just copying the original project including the name and the copyright??

You fork code, not copyrights...

@ibex-are-goats It’s called “fork” I think, just try to continue its development
