Why did you start this separate blog?
My main blog is not really appropriate for posting work on software development projects. I just needed a place where I could post things that I have written that might be of some marginal utility to others beside me. I guess that is sort of a given, since I don't do anything that is so far removed from what most people do that my coding efforts would be only useful to me. Needless to say, the reason this blog exists is to collect all of my work as a hobbyist software developer.
What license do you use?
I think that all depends. I had to grudgingly put the Limited Use Password Plugin under the GNU GPL because it borrowed a few lines of code from one of the WordPress files that handles that sort of thing. The rest of my work is not really licensed per se. I am going to keep the copyright on it firmly, but beyond that, I don't think it's really much of a concern for me right now. The licensing terms are pretty simple:
- You may use it without paying for it.
- You may give it to others without paying for it.
- You may not modify the code, claim credit for the project and/or sell it without my written permission.
Similar to the GNU GPL, but not as restrictive, I guess.
