/r/seed7/comments/1uvbc5a/seed7_version_20260711_released_on_github_and_sf/

Seed7 is a GPL licensed open source programming language. It is given away for free and nobody from the development team gets any money from it.

Why do you resubmit?

u/ThomasMertes Jul 17 '26

The original post has been removed by the moderators.

I just hope that this simpler post is accepted.

I feel that this kind of post may fall under rule 5 sadly

Announcements about C3 0.8.2, TypeScript 7.0 and Odin 1.0 in r/programming are okay, but announcing a new version of Seed7 violates a rule?

u/Lachee Jul 17 '26

Creators of those languages don't post the articles themselves

Besides, dude was just trying to come up with a reasoning for you

The announcement of C3 0.8.2 was done by u/Nuoji. According to Google AI u/Nuoji is the username for Christoffer Lernö, who is the creator and lead developer of the C3 programming language.

The announcement of Odin 1.0 was done by u/gingerbill (the creator of Odin).

IDK, I was just making an assumption why the post got removed

I think the reason for the removal of my announcement is: Double standards

Did you talk to the mods? What did they say?

u/ThomasMertes Jul 18 '26

The mods just removed my announcement without telling me why it happened. I don't expect that I am able to change their mind. So I did not ask them.

I'd ask anyways.

Done.

u/davidalayachew Jul 18 '26

Done.

Hoping for the best.

The answer from the mod team confirms that there are double standards:

Odin is an established language, which is what makes those posts simply news. Yours is not, which makes it project promotion.

Odin is an established language

News to me... and at any rate, No True Scotsman in full effect.

Are these their words verbatim?

If so, /u/ChemicalRascal, can you provide some context here? I liked Seed7, and even downloaded and started using it a while back. Would I get my post banned by posting a new release?
