An excellent client and backgammon experience.

Thanks Trevor for documenting your path, it is quite useful to us all who might want in the future to write an open source multiplayer game.

Nope, I use Mega

a long todo.txt, If I knew how to use emacs I would probably try orgmode, but I don’t.

I backup stuff both on a MicroSD and on web storage with duplicity. Hopefully that is enough!

passwords.txt on a full-disk encryption HDD.

I am happier when I see copyleft but let’s be honest, I would contribute to an interesting, useful project regardless of their choice between MIT and GPL. Same for companies: some prefer MIT, but there is no way they are not going to contribute to the Linux Kernel just because of copyleft. So bottom line is: make something that people enjoy/find useful and see contributors flocking.

CLAs are a different matter: I do not contribute to projects which ask you to assign them copyright unless I 100% trust the organisation behind them.
