There was a problem hiding this comment.
Maybe include Internet Explorer in that list? How about
Modern browsers all support the HTML5 canvas tag to allow 2D command-based drawing. ExplorerCanvas brings the same functionality to old versions of Internet Explorer (Internet Explorer 9+ supports canvas natively). To use, web developers only need to include a single script tag in their existing web pages.

Thanks. It took some time for me to swap all this back into memory. The project moved to google code so I'll change the homepage field to reflect that. |
|
It seems the file is missing a version spec. Bower complains with a "excanvas no version" error. |
|
"The project moved to google code" - so since that one is closing where did it go from there? |
|
It moved from SourceForge to Google Code to GitHub. Not moving again. |

GitHub and Google Code have done the super silly thing to allow you to export a project from Google Code into GitHub directly, instead of having you fork from an immutable (till claimed by the original author) repository that would be autogenerated at first demand on GitHub. That way there are several ExplorerCanvas now on GitHub, but not sure which is the main one, plus you don't see them as related in GitHub to follow their tracks and merge from one to another etc. What a shame |
|
@birbilis Are you sure that these are just not forks of this repo? If you click on the Fork number in the upper right it will show you the network and how the forks are related. |
|
See webjars and cowlibob versions for example, maybe more there. Not sure if they were created via google code export, but most probably that's the case Google code repos don't point to GitHub version unless edited (before freezing?) to have such text. So user thinks latest version is there and try to clone repository, but they're instead offered to export to GitHub where their project becomes the parent one, unrelated to exports from others |
|
See https://github.com/cowlibob/explorercanvas (webjars one might be something like a wrapper, or unrelated, but not sure) Google should allow project author to disable that feature in my opinion or generate a master project (frozen) on GitHub and fork from that. When an owner of the project exported themselves later (if they ever did) it would give it to them, although that could be optional and could have all autofork from immutable exported projects under a googlecode account at GitHub |
