asterisk users - Dec 2006 - (OT) Where to post free source for AGI?

Hey all,

After figuring out a problem with AGI and freepascal, I have finished 
writing a small Cepstral (http://www.cepstral.com) AGI app.  I wrote a 
small readme for it at http://www.datatrakpos.com/misc/dial/readme.txt.

I'd like to give it to the community (source/binary) and was wondering 
where to post it?

The wiki?

Also, anyone have suggestion on licensing?  LGPL?  FreeBSD?

Thanks

Warm Regards,

Lee

I just put a page on the wiki and will host the files for now.

I hope everyone had a great New Year's Eve and New Year's Day dinner!

Happy Holidays!

Sourceforge provides free hosting for open source projects. That is where I
would put it if I were me.

For licensing..  I use the BSD license for my creations, but version 2 of
the GPL is "stronger" in my opinion.

Good luck,
Ejay Hire

After skimming over your readme file I thought I would ask, how does this
app differ from passing the parameters to the swift program using a System
dial plan command? You mention having cepstral play back a text file in a
certain voice, which I have done from the dialplan with the options provided
by cepstral. I just want to see if I missed something.

I would post it to some site of yours (or Sourceforge if you plan to have  
shared CVS) plus a page on the wiki, so people can find it. I have been  
working on a few projects on sourceforge and never had problems with it.  
With licence, you choose. GPL is usually a good starting point for  
licensing.

Please put a pointer to whereever the code is from the wiki, yes.

FreeBSD is a software distribution, not a software license. I guess you
refer to the (modified, a.k.a 3-clause) BSD license. A similar and
simpler license is the "MIT" ("original X11") license.

I personally prefer the GPL, but that is a matter of preference, and
this is your code to license.

Just post it and link to it. If there is some public interest, consider
using a facility like SourceForge to enable others to easily help with
the development.

One advantage of LGPL over GPL is that GPL is 'viral' whereas LGPL is
not.  For a more in depth discussion please see:
http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/manuals/devtool/autotoolset-0.11.4/toolsmanual_87.html

In short, if you want anyone to be able to distribute your software within their
own packages, even proprietary and/or commercial ones, then use the LGPL.  If
you want your software to follow the tenets of 'free and open source'
more strictly, then use the GPL.  Both licenses protect your software, but they
place different limits on how the software is distributed.

Hope this helps!

Thanks to all for the feedback.  I have created a wiki page here:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/DTSwift+Cepstral+AGI+Wrapper
http://preview.tinyurl.com/yl9utq

I will host it on my company website for now.  Seems like a small 
project to bother with SF.net.

Why not just post the text of the AGI to the wiki page?
