Set it free?
In my previous post I detailed an update to the Google Calendar Notifier extension for Firefox - this is long over due… and I really wish I had the time to complete it. So here’s the problem: I really don’t have any time to manage and maintain such a project.
I wrote the original versions of the extension during a time in my life where I had lots of free time - and not many other activities to occupy my daily life.
At the moment, I just have too much going on. (Last quarter of college forever in addition to part time job, job searching, graduation preparation, and lots of other stuff)
So what should I do?
I certainly don’t want to abandon the extension - it is still used by many thousands of people. (In various degrees of “working”) . The current source base is pretty horrible, this was my first Firefox extension, so you can tell from my code I did a lot of exploring - and not much refining.
Maybe I will just release the current trunk of my repository (GCN 2.5 for Firefox 2), as well as what I have completed for GCN3 (not much, some core code changes and the base code of a XPCOM component)- maybe some enterprising developer can take the helm and update it.
If your interested, or have any ideas… please feel free to leave a comment to this post.
