Documentation?????


I would put adequate documentation as part of clarity and discoverability, both because they serve the same end and because the inherent clarity and discoverability can increase or decrease the amount of documentation needed to effectively use the API. So maybe I should have said "clarity, discoverability, and documentation".


In fact one can earn revenue from the sites using your work if you have released under GPL, but they must licence their work in GPL. If you release your work in MIT Licence the developer need not licence his work in MIT he may keep it has closed source. Does Yipit allows commericial usage????


I believe Yipit does allow commercial usage. Since they allow you to save your affiliate-id's for many of the deals sites they aggregate and they build those into the links their API returns to you. The python-twitter uses the Apache license I believe. Where does that lay in the spectrum?


Where does that lay in the spectrum? wt do u mean by this????


By that I mean GPL seems to be very open-source and MIT seems to allow people to close up the code.


Yes. Developers cannot change the licence of your original work. You would be credited by developer even if u choose MIT licence. :)


Just added Apache2 license. Approve?


Yup its good :), Helps developer who are working on MIT, BSD and GPL projects. Hey you can also dual licence your project :)just like jQuery!


good Work :) All The Best. In which licence are yo releasing this??


thanks :)! I was pretty happy with the result. Felt like a bau5 :) but the most nooby kind.

I actually don't know how that license-y thing works... I guess the most open one?


I guess u can choose MIT Licence, if u want allow developers to include your work in their commercial software. You can choose GPL if you want developers to include work only if they are building open source software.:)??


I think GPL sounds good... but at the same time... people who use Yipit's API may be trying to create cool sites that generate a bit of revenue. Does that mean MIT is the way to go? Or is there some middle grounds...


Nyc Pics :) Keep up Good work :)


U mean microsoft web platform??? but wamp is even more flexible to tweak :)


its useful for developer who want create plugin, themes for wp. Localhost is very fast for end user than web server. so having wp installed in local machine has a gr8 advantage thnk u :)


I know what WAMP is good for, thank you very much.

I was referring to the fact that this is nothing new at all.


Yup nt a new concept, bt dnt u think its a evergreen topic????
