I'm making a website to track which software is used internally in my company.
Is there a downloadable database which contains as much software product as possible, along its description. If I can get all sourceforge.net and code.google.com projects as database for instance - it could be really nice.
The only option I saw so far is to use feshmeat.net's data API to get their database, but I'm not sure how willing they are to share it, and it may abuse their servers.
I'll be glad to hear ideas.
