Thanks!    

Will you be able to address the fonts for the SL6000?  Where the numbers should be shown, all I see are squares.

One of our users posted a link to a font ipk that fixes this. I put the link in the forum post where you download the Zaurus version, here: Zudoku for Zaurus forum post

Is it possible to get zudoku running on pdaxrom?

I played it quite often on my C3000 with original Sharp ROM, however, I recently switched to pdaxrom and obviously some libraries are missing. Is it just a matter of installing a number of Qtopia related libraries? If yes, which ones? Or should I forget to run zudoku on pdaxrom?

You could port Zudoku if FigLabs would stop violating the GNU Public License ...

Mickey,

Fig Labs has no intention of violating the GPL.  I posted on our internal forum that we intended to release the source on sourceforge "when I get a spare couple of days" and that is what we will do. Unfortunately the pressures of a full time job and running Fig Labs at the same time means spare days are very hard to come by    .

A couple of weeks ago I registered Zudoku on Sourceforge - here: [a href=\"http://sourceforge.net/projects/zudoku]http://sourceforge.net/projects/zudoku[/url]. I hope to get time to clean the source, make sure it builds on all platforms, provide documentation and instructions, create a mini site and upload it to SF some time in the next month.

Sorry it's taken so long, but please be patient.

Cheers,

Rob

I for one am just appreciative that you bothered to create the program for us.

Please don't let a few sour attitudes stop you from creating more things for the Z.

Thanks.

You are contradicting yourself. The GPL dictates that you provide the *exact* source that was used to build the binary you are distributing, not a cleaned up version. So stop making excuses and upload the sources you used to build the binary.
If you only make the cleaned source available, you will still be violating the GPL, as you are doing now.

So you are
a) violating the GPL right now
 saying you will violate it in the future
c) saying you will never comply

that sounds kinda harsh, but the point is well taken.  surely you have the source youcompiled from?  even if it is far from what you want it to be it should be posted if you are using (by choice or necessity) the gpl.   The thing is that allowing too much libery with the license could create a practice that might pose a serious threat to all open source software.  wiggle room in the gpl is emphatically not in the long term interest of the linux community.

Well, OK, the whole purpose of me working on the package was to make life easier for those who wanted to use the source - by adding comments, documentation etc. It seems there is little incentive for us to do that so, instead, here is the original source used to build the app.

Well done koen, well done for sticking to your priciples.  This is a classic case of the implementation of an ideology losing sight of the spirit of the teaching.  So you've got your hands on some unpolished code a couple of weeks sooner than you would have done, and alienated a contributor in the process.  Well done indeed.

Thanks.

It's in OE and builds fine. I guess a lot of OpenZaurus users will be happy soon.

You can still do that once you get your spare couple of days! Then you upload the new sources and the corresponding diff file and the community will very much appreciate your hard work on this nice little program. In the meantime those users who need to run it on other graphical platforms than Qtopia can look into the source code and see how it can be adapted to other toolsets.

Thanks a lot for the sources! And, as I said, the Zaurus community will definitely appreciate your work on this program!!
