What Hacker News says

2 sources
The quality of their code looks pretty terrible too. For starters, just look at their genMakefiles script (something of a WTF itself - y u no configure?): https://github.com/hackeron/live555/blob/master/genMakefiles It should be more like: os=$1 modules="liveMedia groupsock ..." for module in $modules do /bin/rm -f $module/Makefile cat $module/Makefile.head config.$os $module/Makefile.tail > $module/Makefile chmod a-w $module/Makefile done
In Why do you not make the code available under a 'source code repository'?
