My son is the most special thing in the world for me, but if I post his picture on a parents' forum saying "The ultimate child", I suspect some would disagree.

It's a useful project, and I genuinely thank you for sharing it. That people are upvoting it and commenting positively on it gives me much more information than you saying it's "the ultimate".

haha i'm a dad too, and my son is by far the ultimate baby :) I'see you point. But the fact that the software is public on github makes it implicitly "Open Source". Also a bit of "marketing" doesn't hurt for sharing ideas/projects
