"This is plain wrong, You CAN'T make something open source and at the same time hope that nobody will fork it. The possibility of forking is one of the main liberties granted by the free and open source software. If Andreas doesn't want anyone to fork then by definition can't be open source." Maybe he'll be happy if you give your word that you won't fork it. "As I said before, a way to avoid forking in an open source project is to be open and accepting code from contributors. Not accepting good code for bad reasons is what leads to forking. " Sometimes you have to ignore/fix contributions. For example: - ProcessWrapper on SqueakSource had 2 new package versions which totally broke the package. I asked the contributor why he did the changes, but I got no response in a few days, so I just removed the versions. - PostgresV3 had a contribution, someone fixed a bug. The fix was a simple one-liner, but ignored the (untold) fact that PostgresV3 is meant to be fast, therefore critical methods are optimized by hand. So I had to rewrite to keep up with our goal. "I, and I think, every Pharo user, are ok with the package being controlled by Andreas, as long as the patches are accepted and not rejected for bad reasons (like having the package part of pharo core: that is our problem, if there are issues by having it part of pharo core we'll solve them, without bothering Andreas because they are Pharo specific. But he can't also, by the same Open source nature, restrict the uses of the code)." I don't think the problem was that the package is part of PharoCore. I think the problem was that Andreas wasn't asked about the inclusion and the package was forked and maintained in PharoCore. Levente "We all, greatly respect and admire his technical ability, that has never been denied. But his public interactions has more than one burned a lot of people, and this no-license issue is becoming one of them. We don't want tramps like that of the missing license. When the code was announced it was a public encourage to use it and test it, but we as community went to happy and without checking the license it was included in pharo. That was our error. So please, Andreas, if you want WebClient to be open source please do it, Pharo will use it and send you patches. If not say it too, and we'll find an alternative for this.

I don't get it. If it is open source then is forkable. Period. If it is a special case like GPL, it add some other restriction, like you can't redistribute the new code without it being also GPL. You can fork it and not using GPL for the new changes, the restriction is that you can't redistribute it. But the fact remains that it is forkable always. If you don't want it forkable, then use other non open source license.

GPL is designed to hold people (mostly commercial interests) hostage. Some of what is going on here sounds the same: it's open but not really. A web client is not so terribly difficult to write that we should compromise on licensing in order to use one. I have a *terribly* simple one that I can port if there is interest. IIRC, I used it to download some large files, but don't expect much.

If it is a special case like GPL, it add some other restriction, like you can't redistribute the new code without it being also GPL. You can fork it and not using GPL for the new changes, the restriction is that you can't redistribute it." From wikipedia: "Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form for which the source code and certain other rights normally reserved for copyright holders are provided under a software license that permits users to study, change, and improve the software." There's nothing about forking or redistributing here. I could make a license that says: you can study, change and improve the software, but you can't redistribute it without my permission. "But the fact remains that it is forkable always. If you don't want it forkable, then use other non open source license." See above. You could "fork" it, but that wouldn't be open source anymore.

See the code I attached last mail, switching to convertToEncoding: 'utf8' sort of implied implementing something like that, which gives it nearly the same speed as convertToWithConverter: UTF8TextConverter new in your examples. IMHO, that might be a nice tradeoff between speed and the two desires of not bringing back #squeakToUtf8 in Pharo, nor having to use the convertToWithConverter: call Andreas was strongly opposed to (and which I agree is rather ugly).

Sorry, I didn't see that. It looks cool, but I still wouldn't use #convertToEncoding: in my code, because there's a similar looking method (#converToWithConverter:) with better performance :). But it's definitely better than the current version, though if a converter is added/changed/removed, the dictionary has to be updated manually.
