Not directly related to Ada (technically), but:

I still work on making my (Ada) experimental software (for microscopy) avai=
lable open source: https://korsnesbiocomputing.no/

Before I put it on GitHub, has anyone ideas about headers in source files?=
=20

And are there any possible issues related to making the software available =
as an online service via "Cloud Computing" (virtual servers via for example=
 Apache guacamole: https://guacamole.apache.org/) ? This could make it easi=
er than otherwise to collaborate with users/developers and to introduce new=
 features and correction "on the fly" available for users.

It will cost somehow to operate a virtual server (the software needs comput=
ing resources, space for storing data etc - and one must pay for compiler?)=
. Users could cover these costs. So is it possible somehow to protect such =
cloud computing small business combined with open source? Anyone can on dai=
ly base copy (almost mirror?) if they see money in such cloud computing for=
 my program?
