I'm not going to blast you for closing down FAP, i'm sure it was a drain on your life and your wallet.

However, It does feel kinda like Karma.

Have you designated a name for the open-source server software release?

I'm suggesting "openFAP".

Also, which license do you prefer, and which version of it?

Um, if he's making an open source version of FAP to be used by others (say, under the GPL or a BSD license), then the only thing that he could monetarily sell is the binary package of the software. He has already indicated (on this and previous posts) that the source code of the server software will be made open source, so if he follows through, then he won't be able to sell the source code unless he decides to dual-license it under a proprietary license for those who may use the software for commercial purposes.

If he sells the source code, that makes it proprietary. If he restricts the source code from public view, then that makes it closed-source.

I'm aware of what open source software is. Thanks. I just think it would be a better idea to sell it.

I totally would, but:
  1. Could you imagine the backlash? Selling user-generated content and not giving the contributors of FAP a percent for their effort? Drama.
  2. Who would buy it?

Shhh...open-sourcing a generalized version, re-purposing the existing for something completely different.

The user-generated content has been deleted, though. All that's left is the source.

Exclusivity to the source of the only true competitor to FurAffinity seems like something worth having. :P

Oh gosh, I have no idea.

The code name for FAP was Guava, I might release it under that. But, openFAP maintains the innuendo...hmm...

I'll be releasing the generalized code under the GPL license.

OK. Also, will this release include the fAPI?

Of course. I think the fAPI is an integral part of the website as it allows outside developers to tinker and create fun little toys.
