No offense, but in the case of uber it is alot more to it.

just one example:

In many european countries a driver needs a special insurance for human transportation. In case of an accident this insurance goes into effect, not having this is really bad for all people involved.

In case of ttip:

In europe we got high standards and good laws to protect people(consumers, workers, ...). Dont blame me for this, but this is not the case for the usa.

Not a concrete Project for you (the list is long with good projects), but maybe you find some usefull stuff in the oreilly data archive

http://www.oreilly.com/data/free/archive.html?imm_mid=0e7547...

Maybe one of these projects is a good fit for you.

- https://github.com/taigaio

- https://github.com/wekan/wekan

Maybe you're right, a project like servo (https://github.com/servo/servo) looks like a better fit.

easy bugs to hunt: https://github.com/servo/servo/labels/E-easy

My 2 Cents:

Start out with a solid base: (for example)

- https://cefbuilds.com/

- https://crosswalk-project.org/

- http://electron.atom.io/

- http://nwjs.io/

or you try to help with existing projects: (for example)

- https://github.com/breach/thrust (started out with https://github.com/breach/breach_core a "javascript"-Browser (core is not js))

https://github.com/minbrowser/min

There are plenty of options (all biased by personal opinion) for this task. Maybe one of these projects is a good fit for you (creating consistent uis should be easy with all of these).

- https://crosswalk-project.org/

- https://cordova.apache.org/

- https://kivy.org/

- https://www.nativescript.org/

- https://www.xamarin.com/

Maybe not easier to use in general, but you don't have to replicate all the daily stuff you maybe need for your project. With Flask you have to recreate many things (for example acc management) or rely on a thrid party-dev. In django you get core stuff from the core team(also with the freedom of recreating it yourself or use some app from a thridparty-dev).

Maybe you look at the false examples :)

The Source for the Server is now open source: https://github.com/ironport/shrapnel (python / cython /Pyrex)

And disqus had run mainly on Python before they moved some parts to Go-Lang

Many Gov's / Edu's run on Plone

This is not about pirating the technology, it is about the law in Argentina.

---

"If you don't like Monsanto's work, don't pirate it. "

Their (plant)-technology infiltrates the environment around, so at the end of the day, all farmers are using some kind of monsatos tech (unwanted).

Should they pay, because monsatos IP is spreading like a wildfire?

no offense & best regards

Hey, hey,

a good place to host documentation for a project is "read the docs".

I personally have no intention to actually work on this project. I just forked it to create the possibility to use this project with the apache 2 licence. :)
