There are a lot interesting libraries but some of these are not maintained unfortunately. I we want to keep them relevant everyone should start sharing these on Github. With the forking features of Github all would work much better. Cheers.

S sorex Expert Licensed User Longtime User Aug 10, 2014 #3 I've seen a lot of forks that are just the original with just a minor tweak and sometimes they get away with all the credits as they just give it another name. I wouldn't like to see that with my own code to be honnest. Using git for personal/private use I might consider tho. I can imagine the frustration with certain bugs in a compile lib where the original coder vanished or is not interested to fix/update it.
