> Especially the contents of the subdirectories srr/, tmm/, tg/ and concepts/ are public domain (licensed by an LGPL)
> 
> SMUOS Project:
> Contents of the subdirectory sms/ - is LGPL, too (which is "forked" from directory srr/, after SIMULRR project has been stopped).

> 
> The whole SRR Framework/SMUOS Framework is EXPERIMENTAL - we should improve the network sensor first (see my proposal at http://smuos.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/smuos_03_sema_01.pdf ) and rebase the SRR Framework/SMUOS Framework to the improved network sensor afterwards.
> 
> Alternatively we could only improve the network sensor itself and discard the SRR Framework/SMUOS Framework, just keeping me in the loop for discussions (I guess this would be the easiest for all involved parties). This would leave more space for other ideas.
> 
> The only closed source are the SRR Tools written in Visual Basic for Windows (source code only on my home PC and on backup drive). But SRR Tools are an optional part of the project, not really needed.
> 
> I hope many people will share their ideas and thoughts.
> 
> If you agree, we should forward this e-mail to X3D-public.
> 
> At least please feel free to forward to anybody who you think should be involved.
