Nice to have the source code available, but what about the license?

To attract developers, a repository (e.g. git) would be needed.

Those modifying the code can post back up to DesignSpark as Knowledge items. (Share Knowledge option when logged in) We will look at a slicker way of sharing the code ASAP.
