Anyway, if i were you i wouldn't start too many projects now.
OK, my NWiiflow and compiled version of libogc are no longer public ...
Listen. Hibern released the source. Said the code was ours. Said he wasn't going to add any features or fix any bugs, because it was ours now. ALL of ours. And now he wants to tell people what they can or can't, or should or shouldn't be doing with the code? As fantastic and appreciated as his work is, that attitude reeks of arrogance. If he only wanted his approved number of projects (which I guess anything more than one is 'too many'?) coming from his source, then he shouldn't have released it publicly and should have instead just given it to his 'trusted' pals. He isn't dumb. He knew his code was going to be modified by many, yet he chose to release it anyways. Don't let his comment discourage you from doing anything and certainly don't play the "OK, I'm taking my ball home and no one can play with it..." attitude because of it. IMHO.
I apologize, i should have said : "Anyway, if i were you i wouldn't start too many projects now."
Hope it's clearer this way.
You're right, anyone is free to start a project, and i have no right to tell who does what, but wiiflow is just a small app, wrongly designed for an open source project (spaghetti code, written with one limited goal in mind), IMHO it's better to wait and see how it evolves with one project and try to contribute, unless you have very original ideas for it.
For your information, wiiflow might have one of the smallest source codes among "big" usb loaders (don't count data and inherited code), it would be strange to have several projects starting from this base.
And i should add, putting wiiflow in PD isn't only a way to let open source projects start from it, it also is a way to share code with other projects without constraints or silly copyright notices.
