Just FYI, NIMBioS is in the process of resuming their efforts to port
NEAD to their environment. If this is something that others want to
join, I'd be happy to push for an effort here to put the code up on a
public repository, for example github, which would allow others to
fork or clone and add their own customizations, for which we could
then periodically discuss whether they are worth being brought back
into a "master repo".
When we started to develop NEAD, that was the one piece of software we
thought would for sure never be interesting to anyone else, so there
may passwords and stuff inadvertently committed in places when they
shouldn't be. So before this goes up on a public repo we better go
through the code to weed out such pieces. But we run a private git
server too, so perhaps that's a possibility too. Right now it's on a
private svn server, and thus not very amenable to sharing some but not
all development.
