Does anyone know of an open source library that does ftp-client with TLS and SSL for dotNET?
We are using a commercial library now but we are not very happy with it, so we are thinking of switching. So instead of rolling our own, are there any lgpl (or equivalent) librarys out there?
Or - If we have to roll our own (it will be a LGPL ...

Now that I know how to find a Ruby open source project, how do I judge which ones are most likely to help my career prospects. I've never worked in the Ruby world and need something that might show off my potential to be a good hire. Or is any project as good as anything else as long it's something you're interested in? Also, would it ma...

My question to the communi...
I'm looking for an open source project written in Java with a relatively low barrier to entry, ie. not hugely complex, friendly, etc.
My background is mostly in web apps so, that'd be the best place for me to start. Mostly, I'm just looking for some place I can do some stuff in free time and keep my chops polished.
I plan on browsing ...
I'm a beginner to Ruby and RoR. I went through a book (railsspace) which covers the basics. I understand the basics of how RoR works, REST etc.
Beyond this, I'm not sure how to proceed. In short, my questions are
What topics should I concentrate on, to grow as a RoR programmer?
I checked quite a few books, didn't fully like many of...

I know some C++, but I just want something that will be easy to add to and fix and can help me polish my C++ skills for the bigger projects. Can anyo...

E-Texteditor recently announced going open-source with their open company model. However after reading through I am not sure if this model is really open.

I'm writing an application that manipulates some sort of social network data, so the ideal underlying data structure is weighted directed graph. I'd like to do the manipulation (and searching) directly on the data, without first loading the entire graph into memory and serializing after.

It seems that the normal progression to join projects is to contribute for a while, earn the trust, then get accepted as a member of the community (i.e. having commit access).
Now, I already apparently know "the best way" of how to get involed, in a manner of speaking; this is not my question; what I was hoping to attain is: How did eve...
