Bottom post of the previous page:
Some people are scared of the copyright implications. Don't forget this is before YouTube. Some top members with hundreds (or thousands) of posts literally said, "If you don't stop this project, I'm leaving". Crazy right?Motorsportrace wrote:That's strange. Why should they be against it?PTRACER wrote:It is! I'm so glad you asked about the database, my only wish is that I hadn't abandoned/deleted the original one. We had 65 pages of the Openwheel thread completed, but so many people were against it.
Well asking people to pay would be illegal. I intend to keep the database public so anyone can see it, but only a small number of people can edit it (using a password) Unless you think I should link it to their forum account (which may be possible?)Motorsportrace wrote:Well, yes. I can do something when I have some time.PTRACER wrote:Btw, I hope you realise how much work this will involve
About the "publicly available" question: I asked if the database will be published so that everyone can see it without logging into the forum.
But I doubt it would be a good idea: just look at what the idiots at documentingreality did and are still doing. Many people joined that website (paying) just because of those crash photos, not knowing they could've seen them totally free here.
