In the Rust Digger project we collect data from crates, at this point it is only the meta-data from crates.io, but we plan to include data from the GitHub repositories.
However, this data is already useful for some minor contributions to Rust crates. Specifically, crates that have a link to their VCS are going to be easier to find if someone wants to contribute to them.
So we created a report listing all the crates that do NOT have such a link. See the first report.
I am doing some research into how various organizations handle open source and contribution to open source and I just bumped into this page listing various Government agencies around the world and their GitHub organizations. It's a goldmine.
Based on this article A-GPL sounds like a good idea for applications and maybe for libraries used in products. Probably not so good idea for libraries used primarily by sysadmins and other in-house engineers.
... and Java and C and C# and even PHP gets more complex as the code base grows. I am sure you don't pretend that naming one, or 3 does not send the message that that the others are not.
I only named those three because they were within the context of the discussion. Nothing more. The idea that complexity increases over time and become a barrier to entry applies to a great many things.
