UI Widgets developed within my master thesis
Felix Nagel
I developed some widgets (with help of the jQuery widget factory and
the jQuery UI CSS Framework) within my master thesis at the University
of Applied Science Gießen-Friedberg, Germany and Martin Kliehm
suggested to post it in here and the wiki.
I dont like to spam your wiki, so i decided to ask how to contribute
the best way. Perhaps you could use some of my work or just give me
some feedback.
My goal was to provide some accessible, usable and easy to implement
widgets to improve quality and working speed in frontend developers’
daily routine. So I picked some of the most seen design patterns on
the web: currently a lightbox app, live form-validation, accessible
tabs and sortable tables are ready to use.
The code and the thesis are both licensed under a Creative Commons
Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported Licence.
Please check out the wiki at GitHub to learn about the features and
how to use. Im still improving and fixing bugs, so it would be great
to get some feedback in code quality and accessibility.

Thanks in advance and thanks for jQuery ;-)

We've seen your work and are interested in pulling it into the UI project. We'd love to work with you, but tThe current license is a problem because it prevents us from using any of your code since jQuery is released under an MIT license. Are you willing to change the license or redo the work directly in the jQuery UI project with all the code you write going to the jQuery Foundation?

great to hear you like my work. I wasn't sure code quality is good
enough. Did you take a look inside the code? I really love to get some
feedback!
I'm willing to change the license immediately but i have to ask the
company I worked at while my master thesis. Would it be acceptable if
something like "Felix Nagel for Namics Deutschland GmbH" stays in the
license owner text? Would be much easier to argue with.

I haven't looked at the code quality because of the copyright. If I
were to read your code and implement something in UI based on it, it
could lead to copyright infringement. Ultimately the copyright holder
has to be the jQuery Foundation. We currently list every contributor
in the license for UI, but as soon as we have all the code transfered
to the foundation all of the names will be removed.
Felix Nagel
thanks for the fast response.
Could you describe to me (or is there a document) how this transfer
process looks like?
For now, i did understand that i need to relicense my widgets under
MIT so its compatible with jQuery. Later (when exactly?) ownership
will be transfered to the jQuery foundation and therefor every
contributer name will be removed.
We talk about the licence itself. Do you plan to publish a
contributers list or something similar on the jQuery website?

We also don't have a final plan for listing contributors. We may list all contributors for all projects on the foundation's web site, or we may list contributors on each individual project site. Either way, it's likely that we will have some form of a contribution list (it's just unlikely to be in the form of the authors file in the UI repo that we have today).

ive got some feedback:
Namics is happy to hear about jQuery UI like to use my widgets and
they agree to change the license. As soon as i managed my laptop
problems (some really bad MBR problems) i will change the license to
MIT. Just give me a few days...

Im looking forward for some feedback and perhaps some new widgets in
the jQuery UI ;-)
