Those are links to supporting our maintainers. Not a project repo. > And on the Worg page (which is "official" from the new users point > of view) there is also a GitHub link.

The standards specify not to promote non-free software. While I don't like Github at all, in this context it's only for the sponsorship solution. That's a service like Paypal. I'm not sure what a clear answer is here. I don't like having any mention of Github and non-free services myself, but I respect that we need to support the maintainers and that may require using common services. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Russell Adams rlad...@adamsinfoserv.com PGP Key ID: 0x1160DCB3 http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/ Fingerprint: 1723 D8CA 4280 1EC9 557F 66E8 1154 E018 1160 DCB3
