Question
I've just finished a mini-project (a graphical 2d silverlight tag cloud) and I've made the source code available on my website as a zip file - but where should I put the code to allow people to find it and evolve it if they wish? codeplex? but I guess this would count as an inactive project?
Solution
I recommend github.
OTHER TIPS
Find and Build Open Source Software
Google Code is great, free, and easy. It supports subversion.
http://www.codeplex.com/ This is run by Microsoft, which should be a fine match with Silverlight.
CodeProject is good too.
It depends upon what you plan to do.
- If you want to share the code with the world and open it to large cooperation, definitely go github
- If you want to setup a nice web site, with a complete community with mailing lists, and a selected number of authorized contributors, go sourceforge.
- Alternatively, you could use one of the sourceforge-like : google code, codeplex, savannah, berlios...
