h2 Is this web application available as a Debian package?

|

p
|

|
|
||||
I have been asked why the web application was not simply put into
|
||||
a Debian package so everybody can install their own copy. First of all it
|
||||
is pretty complex and creating a package from it would be time-consuming.
|
||||
And the web application was specifically created to operate this web site.
|
||||
Running a private copy of it would not really make much sense.

p
|

|
|

Valid question. I am not a professional Rails developer so I was
|
||||
reluctant to publish the source code. In fact I feared it would
|
||||
attract people with bad intentions rather than contributors.
|
||||
Yes, that is a weak reason. So after the next major update I will
|
||||
add the Git URL here so you can get the source code and start
|
||||
critisizing me. :)
