New BibConverter site

• Published 2006-08-13 (1 year, 9 months ago)

BibConverter has become a popular tool since I released it last year. I have received quite a bit of positive feedback and the number of users is steadily increasing. Domain names are quite cheap nowadays, so I decided to buy the bibconverter.net domain and move BibConverter from the server at work to my new web host Webfaction. Now I have more freedom to develop BibConverter further, and users have a much easier URL to remember: http://www.bibconverter.net.

Source code hosted by Google Code

Google recently started to offer free hosting for open source projects. The offer was generous so I decided to create a BibConverter project at Google Code. Now the BibConverter source code is available from an online Subversion repository. There's also an issue tracker that can be used to report bugs and other issues.

Changed license to MIT

To host the project at Google code I had to choose between a limited set of open source licences. I decided to go for the MIT license. It's more verbose than my previous license, but it basically gives you the same freedom to do whatever you want with the code.
