Talk:SmartCode

I wrote (with input from others) the brief SmartCode entry just to get something started, but have not continued to add to it because I am confused by the "rules" about conflict of interest and marketing. Now the entry is flagged as being incomplete.

In this case, the only people who know enough about the SmartCode model development code to describe it are the people who actively work with it. For Wikipedia to be accurate, these people (including me) should be allowed to write and edit sections. The model code is freeware, so there is no direct financial benefit to promoting it on Wikipedia. However, the more it is used, the more consultant work we are offered. Nevertheless, I think it is important for the entry to be substantial, useful, and accurate. Does anyone have a problem with the experts in the burgeoning field of SmartCode planning being the authors of Wikipedia entries? Thanks for your guidance.
