according to .github/CONTRIBUTING.md, the main list must only contain Free Software.
Fair Source License does not meet any authoritative definition of FLOSS (FSF, Debian, OSI)
In their words: "The Fair Source License is not an open-source license and doesn’t intend to be an open-source license."
This commit adds a new section, "Archiving and Digital Preservation,"
which contains four specialty Web-based applications primarily designed
to service the needs of professional archivists with free software.
These are distinct from simple Content Management Systems (CMS) tools in
that they feature industry-specific requirements for digital
preservation techniques, museum and archives semantic/ontological
XML-based standards (such as Encoded Archival Description, or EAD) atop
the usual CMS infrastructures such as Web document publishing and so on.
Among the Awesome List style guide recommendations is to omit the
leading "A" or "An" preposition for line item descriptions. This commit
removes all leading "A/An" words from line items, so as to better
conform to the Awesome List style guide.
This commit further fixes several typos ("opensource" becomes "open
source"), and capitalization errors (title case line items in some
instances are normalized to standard initial-caps on the first word,
which is no longer "A" or "An").
Additionally, this commit replaces the ampersand (`&`) in headlines and
line item descriptions with its English equivalent, "and," in order to
read more naturally. This change also helps resolve some ambiguity in
URL fragments (intra-page anchors), which would otherwise contain two
dashes in sequence (`--`) rather than a semantic description of the
section to which the intra-page link target actually refers.
The description for Emby was incredibly unhelpful, in my opinion. It
simply read that it was "built with popular open source technologies,"
which gives a reader no meaningful information about why it might be a
good option. A better description would call out a feature or offer a
reason distinct from other items in the same category. I think Emby's
out-of-the-box support for both DLNA and DIAL is worth noting and helps
the reader understand what and why Emby actually is more quickly.
This commit accomplishes the todo items in issue #1215. Specifically:
* Servers and clients are split in italicized sub-lists.
* Link to Wikipedia's article on CalDAV/CardDAV comparisons is added.
* Additional projects are added.
Specifically, the following projects have been added:
* DAVdroid
* EteSync Web
More projects can be added, if desired.
Further, this commit changes the headline from "Calendar and Address
Books" to "Calendaring and Contacts Management" so as to more clearly
describe the purpose of the projects in the list.
This commit updates the Passbolt entry so that it reads more clearly.
The programming language is already listed at the end of the entry, and
so there's no need to repeat it in the description. However, the
database backend (MySQL) should be noted in a grammatically clear way.
This commit updates the license identifier for BSD-style licensed
projects that declare their specific license with a LICENSE file on
GitHub. Additionally, the list of licenses is updated to remove the
non-existent `BSD` short identifier and replaces it with the two
SPDX-conformant license short-identifiers, `BSD-2-Clause` and
`BSD-3-Clause` defined by SPDX and recognized by GitHub.
all three licenses will be identified as 'BSD' since we have no track record of which entry has which one
user should read the specific license terms of each program for more details
This commit adds the Calibre Web app and positions it inside a new
section for e-books and other mostly text-based media. This is also a
good opportunity to add information about enterprise-class Integrated
Library Systems, so that is done as well and adds the Koha and Evergreen
library management software, both self-hostable Free Software tools to
that category. Koha is moved out of "budgeting," since it is much more
appropriately categorized as an ILS along with Evergreen, et. al.
This commit further moves related items out of Misc/Other, namely COPS,
and into this new e-book/library category, where it should be expected.
This commit takes the suggestions in issue number #1201 and applies them
to the entire list. Specifically, this commit does the following:
- Replaces asterisks (`*`) with single dashes (`-`) for list items.
- Indents sub-lists (e.g., dependencies) by two spaces.
- Uses the same number of dashes for creating horizontal rules.
- Removes extra lines to make space around each heading consistent.
Additionally, this commit moves and indents `ympd` to correctly reflect
its parent dependency (`mpd`), alphabetizes the `Phproject` line item as
per the list suggestions (items should be alphabetized in their
respective categorical sub-list), and renames the "Custom" heading to
provide better clarity ("Custom communication systems"), setting the
links to that heading item to its new name.
