Welcome to the new
shaim website. Content from the original
Bounty Source project page is being moved here gradually, please bear with us while everything gets done. If a task that you logged on the old project page doesn't appear on the new pages, please feel free to recreate it yourself.
Why the move?
The Bounty Source administrators are both very motivated and intelligent, and sadly the free market took notice and companies have hired them away. Since our counteroffer was "a beer if you're ever in Kansas, if you're buying," their choice was clear and well-made. Bounty Source may still, and hopefully will, survive as an Open Source entity, but our hosting needs are currently better met elsewhere.
You hadn't updated the BS page in seven months anyway!
Good point. I never think about doing that. Hopefully with the more goal-oriented issue tracker
Trac powering the four projects, I'll be better about updating the sites with all the news that's fit to spill.
Four projects?
Joining
shaim,
OscarLib, and
MsnLib is the new project
JabberLib, a .NET library for accessing XMPP servers such as Google Talk. The best offering on the Open Source market for .NET Jabber components was AgsXMPP, which was abandoned in a poorly documented state several months ago. Following in the grandiose tradition, JabberLib will be available as a component separate from shaim so that any developer may use it freely. Like the other libraries, it will be released under the LGPL.
