Comments and questions from I JethroBT (WMF)

@Azermite and Ocaasi: Thanks for your proposal to support the developnent of CiteCheck. When reviewing proposals for software/tool development, we have some general questions we ask for general eligibility, in addition to having technical staff at the Wikimedia Foundation conduct a general review of the proposal. Please see the eligibility questions below:

• Is the code to be public and under an OSI-approved free software license?
• Will the project have multiple maintainers / planners? I understand that the project will be supported by two advisors, but what is the longer-term maintenance plan for the tool?
• Is there documentation planned? Where will this be made available?

Hi I JethroBT (WMF). Here are answers to your questions, direct from Salim (who is still finding his way around Meta)

• Yes the project is open source. It's under an MIT license.
• Yes, Salim will continue to maintain the code while James Hare and Kevin Payravi be backup maintainers should Salim be unavailable..
• Yes. Documentation will be provided in github and also the official website. Also we will create a Meta-Wikimedia page for easier access and promotion.

Please let me know if you need any other information! Cheers, Ocaasi (talk) 23:19, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
