Well i just notice this but i want to officially abandon a few of me hacks that i have listed as abandoned on my website, they include for one zelda tech junk, but i don't know what it means about source code for a hack, does it want the ips patch or the rom or what exactly should i included other then the patches and the read me files. Maybe this isn't the right place for this.

No need to include any roms. Make a patch from the latest update of your hack(s). And be specific which rom is needed. A readme should be brief, yet informative. Some hackers, such as myself, appreciate people improving on their work. Others don't.

Same guidelines work for utilities also. Include source code if possible. For instance, it allows users to fix bugs easier.

Cool it might take me a few days after the 4th to get them fixed up but i wouldn't be bothered in the least if someone improved upon my abandon hacks. i think there is at least 3 of them that i want to abandon the zelda one has 4 patches one of witch is missing some where i might not be able to find it unless it was some where in my backup cause it was one my lost hard drive an i am unsure if i backed it up or not i hope i find it tho cause it was never released and was a bug fix patch but not complete. then there is Osama Assassin that i just lost intrest in, the 3rd one is undecided take a look  and if any one see's something they want to improve on let me know in me email and i'll consider it, i might in some cases think about helping make a hack better with the help of some one else also or even join a project but that will have to be later on after the 4th we are having a block party so i'm full up rightnow. take to mind i don't want give up all of me hacks but a few of them i can do with out for rightnow anyway i am to busy to do anything other than talk right now. sorry about the wall of text.

Another thing I'd recommend is if you have notes of any sort, include those.

Well I decided that the only two hacks I am going to Abandon will be Zelda tech junk 1&2, and Osama Assassin. Witch zelda tech 1&2 are modifications of the same hack 1 is not locked, and 2 is locked, both are full of bugs and are missing things such as secret money, and castles in there 2nd quest. I'll read through all the read me's, and make a newer one with some more pacific data, and include what ever else I know about it. Zelda tech junk is one of my more elaborate hacks but I have been unable to fix the bugs since the beginning, maybe some one with more skill can fix it where I failed. Osama Assassin is just an spoof or joke of the original game chuka tiasen witch at the time I had no ideal that it had anything to do with the story journey to the west, but once I found out I decided that I didn't want to make a joke of it anymore. So some one else can have it an do whatever they want with it because I am done with it. Thanks for the suggestions, later.
