Is this on github?

Being that they have not chose a license to release the code under, it should not be on Github. Github repositories without a license are generally covered by copyright. [1]

To clarify, the default copyright rules apply (which means, more or less, no copying allowed).

Copyright very much applies to MIT/BSD/GPL licensed code as well. In fact, the mechanism of the GPL requiring changed+released versions to include an offer for the (modified) source code depends on copyright.

Not yet. What we will do probably until the end of the year is choose a license, clean a bit the tree and commit.

Edit: Technically speaking, it IS already on github, just not on a public repository :)

cool, thanks!

My entire workflow for keeping track of projects I want to follow centers around GitHub, so I can't wait :P

I have a side project related to this, would you be interested in talking about your workflow? You can email me at hello on umamicollective.com
