RE: SteemWorld Support tomorrow ON or OFF?
I ve always tried to support your project through votes and at one point direct donation but I won't support your SPS, mainly for 2 reasons:
- Your project is closed source so it is only beneficial to the community as long as you see fit or able to provide the service.
- You are seldom writing about your progress.
If you would just make the project opensource and show what you re actually doing with the SPS funds, plenty of people will vote for your projects.
Cheers!
I believe @steemchiller was reporting weekly on progress long before the SPS and perhaps since the proposal got in, his time has been spent on development over progress reports?
Agreed though, both of the points you make should help.
Part of the proposal is to open source the whole thing. Perhaps he should have put that in the title.
Making it opensource it s not a task per se, he can do it first and will get more support.
You can download the source code: https://steemworld.org/download
So he only needs to publish it with a license attached to it, it seems.
I would assume he is only working on the documentation and the technicalities.
Anyways, the project is not closed source and the proposal includes open sourcing steemworld and that is the opposite of what you claimed above.
upvoting since i dont think your comment should be hidden ...
This is not opensource code, its the same obfuscated code that I can find on my console while on steemworld.

Nop, wont make it human readable.
Yeah, looking at it again now ...
That's not really readable ...
Still, open source was part of the proposal and why I agreed to it, after reading it carefully.
That's your choice and I respect it.
The correct defintion is source code is the preferred version for developing the project, not anything that humans can read. I can read some machine code reasonably well, but that does not make it source code.
Ha ! You were right until you called that machine code.
To clarify I didn't mean this obfuscated javascript is machine code. I was referring to actual machine code (x86 hex dump for example) and pointing out that it is possible for some people to read it. But it usually (with rare exception) is not the preferred version for developing and maintaining the program, therefore not source code.
Can we not please cut this short to where you admit you did not really read the full proposal and missed the (granted: small) paragraph, where he promises open sourcing steemworld as well ?
Why promising it when it takes minutes to do it?
In any case, I m not forcing him to do anything, I just give my personal opinion regarding what he should do to get funded again. It just happens that I m not the only one thinking that way.
People like you are the ones who complain about closed source applications, when they are using Windows, Adobe, Office, etc. and their children also work with closed software.
Hypocrites, false, liars and opportunists
Using and paying to develop are two different things. Microsoft and Adobe don't apply to Steem stakeholders for funding.
