So it's not only .NET or Microsoft but any platform. :-) And that is a Good Thing (tm). I'm not entirely sure how this will be different from codeplex.com but I think it is a good thing. http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment6http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment6Fri, 11 Sep 2009 06:49:38 GMT@Scott, do you trust Google genuine intentions? Or any other corporate altruism? Maybe their thinking like 'do something good for them geeks, they will surely do more good to us'? http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment5http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment5Fri, 11 Sep 2009 05:13:33 GMTOren, Did you read the comments to Scott Hanselman's post on CodePlex Foundation? Hanselman: "Agreed, Oren should be on the advisory board. His name was in early lists; I suspect it's an oversight and I'll mention it to SamR." http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment4http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment4Fri, 11 Sep 2009 04:04:50 GMTIf they sponsor projects like NH who cares about genuine intentions. Also, I don't think the foundation is about 'hosting code'. http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment3http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment3Fri, 11 Sep 2009 02:17:47 GMTMe either. I've been unimpressed with CodePlex, the first project I tried setting up didn't have SCC for days, it seemed to require manual input by someone to fix this. Google Code on the other hand worked from day one and didn't treat me like a child. Plus forgive me if I don't entirely trust Microsoft's genuine intentions... http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment2http://ayende.com/4186/codeplex-foundation#comment2Fri, 11 Sep 2009 01:45:01 GMTI don't get it.
