can anyone confirm if that is the case (or if "CE" does not show) ?  Thanks

Has allways been with the CE as far as I can remember!

I added the "CE" bit just 1 or 2 commits prior to release Frozen (if I remember correctly).  It was asked for by Henry as he had a lot of input in the few months running up to that release.

Thanks for confirming

early edge site ie before frozen shows

My mistake it has the CE at the end.

My point is how can a project have 2 sets of copyrights?

Like I say...it's easier to throw stones than to do something positive for the community.

What i would like to do is publish my own fork and make it available here.

18 May '18.  I also updated the readme to read:  "osCommerce 2.3.4.1 CE"

I then released Frozen a few hours later on the same day.

That maybe a possibility in the near future.  You can be sure I won't be pointing and laughing at your efforts.

A project can have as many copyrights as authors.  So long as all are GPL compatible...all good.

Help clear up the confusion and stop calling that project CE.

Confusion is guaranteed just take a look at the links in the signatures in the posts in this thread.

one takes you to,

https://githubdotcom/gburton/osCommerce-234-bootstrap/archive/master.zip

which downloads a file "Responsive-osCommerce-master.zip"

Another takes you to,

https://githubdotcom/gburton/Responsive-osCommerce/archive/2341-Frozen.zip

which downloads a file "Responsive-osCommerce-2341-Frozen.zip"

Both links claim to be the latest CE version to be used?

I have downloaded both files, and they both seem to be the same. @burt, can you confirm this?

Per my signature, "master" should be Edge (work-in-progress) and "Frozen" should be the Frozen snapshot of Edge in May 2018. Unless something recently got scrambled in the GitHub respository! How deeply did you compare the two zip packages? If nothing else, unzip both and bulk compare using WinMerge (on Windows... I don't know what the Linux equivalent is) and see if they are truly the same. Be aware that the sample installations apparently say "Edge" in the Frozen package, and "Frozen" in the Edge, but that can be ignored. I believe that both say "2.3.4.1 CE" for the version.

https://githubdotcom/gburton/Responsive-osCommerce/archive/2341-Frozen.zip
is this:
https://github.com/gburton/Responsive-osCommerce/tree/2341-Frozen

and

https://githubdotcom/gburton/osCommerce-234-bootstrap/archive/master.zip
is this:
https://github.com/gburton/Responsive-osCommerce/tree/master

Or put another way;

2341-Frozen.zip downloads the Frozen release
and
master.zip downloads the very latest fileset (edge)

I stand corrected

It maybe worth everyone who has a link to link to the post that is in my sig.

I can then keep that post updated as more releases come along.

I don't mind at all....I guess I should be flattered.

Ready!!

It would also be good to add a track to the EDGE version, for example, adding the date of the month to the version .... what do you think?

Best regards.

I've implemented sitewide hooks on a Branch here - https://github.com/gburton/Responsive-osCommerce/tree/201906/includes/hooks/shop/siteWide

Take for (eg) the Bootstrap one, it includes easy versioning, as so:

https://github.com/gburton/Responsive-osCommerce/blob/201906/includes/hooks/shop/siteWide/bootStrap.php#L18

This should help a lot for shopowners being able to recognise exactly what they are running.
