F-droid publication

[lionirdeadman]

It'd be really to have this in F-droid!

I don't believe there's anything blocking this from being published there. ;)

I'd like to limit its distribution a little bit until I fix major issues like #25 (which I have failed to document until now) that affect the core functionality. While there are downloads through my website and GitHub releases, I can at least assume that people using these either know what they are doing or that it is an alpha / pre-release (and the same with users on the Play Store).

[lionirdeadman]

Yeah, that's understandable.

Is there any proprietary libraries used though which would block its inclusion there?

[fennifith]

Are there any proprietary libraries?

Nope. As of right now, all of the libraries are as follows:

• Android support / appcompat, Apache 2.0 (AOSP)
• Material Components, Apache 2.0
• afollestad/aesthetic, Apache 2.0
• jahirfiquitiva/FABsMenu, Apache 2.0
• mikereedell/sunrisesunsetlib-java, Apache 2.0
• google/ExoPlayer, Apache 2.0
• bumptech/glide, BSD, part MIT, and Apache 2.0
• ...aaaand a couple written by me, mostly under Apache 2.0 (AndroidUtils is MIT)

[lionirdeadman]

Nice. You seem to really like Apache ;)

I'll leave this issue open until it's published. (Whenever you think it is ready)

"Subscribing" to this issue. For now, your app is in my repo (which is something between "testing" and "non-free" for F-Droid), so testers can already pick it from there. Please comment on this issue when you're ready for the official repo. As one of F-Droid's maintainers, I gladly help you filing the RFP (Request For Packaging) then 😃

[fennifith]

Thanks Izzy! I'll try to get it finished / cleaned up in the next couple days, sorry for the delay.

[fennifith]

First non-beta release is out! It should be ready now :)

Thanks, @fennifith – and here you go 😃
