I had this "twitter conversation" with Luca Passani, which is the inventor of WURFL and seems not to be very happy about the openDDR data. See here: http://twitter.theinfo.org/150245251838255104 AFAIK the openDDR people do have another stance on the issue than Luca, but it looks like it's wise to not rely on/use the OpenDDR data before having looked into that issue very closely. chregu > > -Bertrand > > > >> On Dec 23, 2011, at 12:04 PM, Bertrand Delacretaz wrote: >> >>> On Fri, Dec 23, 2011 at 4:08 PM, Andrus Adamchik <and...@objectstyle.org> >>> wrote: >>>> >>>> On Dec 23, 2011, at 9:57 AM, Bertrand Delacretaz wrote: >>>> >>>>> Note that the proposal mentions OpenDDR donating their *source code* >>>>> only - as mentioned in the proposal, the "details" of the repository >>>>> data will be discussed once the podling starts. >>>> >>>> The repository is the most valuable piece here.
