Open-Source

I created an account for myself over at SourceForge. This is a website that many people use to provide open-source software on. Many services are available such as defect tracking, forums, tasks, screenshots, and even some source-control using CVS.

The whole reason I’m looking into SourceForge is that I want to go public with my Automagic Podcaster software soon that I use with Dreamy Audio. I’m looking into a couple of things before I do it. Besides places to host the files and collaborate with others, I also need to look into licensing.

Although I wish to distribute the code as free open-source software, I also need to protect it. I want to allow people to modify it, but I don’t want them to package it up and resell it. I also want credit where credit is due. I also don’t want people to redistribute there modified version without stating what they have modified from the version that they received.

There are many licenses out there. I just have to find the rite one that matches my intent.

    Hi, I just downloaded your code for uploading images with Asp. It’s brilliant! Thank you very much!!

    Was just wondering if it was possible to upload 4 images at a time and still make the names unique if they have been uploaded before?

    This is wwhat I have at the moment but it does not seem to make the image names unique:

    Folder = Server.MapPath(”Uploads”) & “\”

    FileName = Upload.UniqueName(Folder, FileName)

    Upload(”Image1″).SaveAs Folder & Upload(”Image1″).FileName

    Upload(”Image2″).SaveAs Folder & Upload(”Image2″).FileName

    Upload(”Image3″).SaveAs Folder & Upload(”Image3″).FileName

    Upload(”Image4″).SaveAs Folder & Upload(”Image4″).FileName

    Thanks very much!
