Never forget though, that being open source doesn't mean that much, when there is only _one_ party deciding, what goes into the code base.


It's GPL 2.0, on github, which makes it ridiculously easy to fork, tear apart, debug, etc, given your time and ability.

That said, I would like to see it self hosted. I think then and only then will I give it a serious look.

Being open source doesn't mean I have to maintain your code contributions.


Being opensource does mean it’s free. And can dig in and read the code. And if you want to, fork it and add your own features.


That's just cathedral style free software.
