Subject | RSS parser and XML importer |
Date | 12 January 2006 02:57 |
Hello,
I hacked around with the scripts in the subject because I wanted to make
an online RSS reader while learning javascript programming.
Since people keep saying the result is nice I decided to distribute the
code.
Inside the code I'm using sligtly modified versions of your XML importer and
RSS parser functions.
You can see the application on my webpage ([URL]),
click on "selected newsfeeds". The script is still far from perfect but it
is
working enought for a public beta.
I hope it is not a problem for you if I use and re-distribute your code.
As you can see I work for a non-profit organization and credits will be
given to you on the project page and inside the code.
If you have no objections I will but the library online.
Best regards
Dario Maggiorini

That sounds OK, since it is a derived work, and not a direct copy, but I
will have to ask you to follow the conditions on my terms of use page:
http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/jslibs/termsOfUse.html
Could you put all my comments (from both files) back in the source, and add
aditional comments saying what parts you changed and why (nothing huge, just
so that people know where it is different from the original).
Credits are not necessary, since this is non-profit, but welcome if you want
to include them :)
