The following rules apply to all community-developed and released tools:
- Tools should be packaged in a ZIP file (or similar) with a readme file. Write a tutorial on how to use your tools if it's not obvious.
- You should create a new thread in the Tool Releases forum and attach a copy of your tool to the original post. Keep this original post updated when you release new versions. This is aimed at avoiding tools disappearing when people leave a community or when people move things around and forget to update links.
- You should release source code with your tools. Ideally a copy of the source code for the version you have currently released should be attached to the forum. This is to prevent malware spreading on the forum (people have tried before). Tools without source code may be removed without warning.
- You may release your tool source code under whatever license you prefer, however we prefer that you allow future users and developers as much freedom as possible to use/improve your tools.
