As we have already announced, Smith project is preparing for going open-source. One of the biggest challenges is how to manage the project once the source code goes to the public: coordinate network of contributors, create and perform testing, control the quality of code etc. We would like to hear your opinions about this important issue.

I think the good news is there have been many who have gone down this road before and so there are tools to handle this already.

The first two that come to mind are SourceForge.net and Trac (http://trac.edgewall.org/)

Using these would handle bug tracking, documentation and version control. From there its setting a few people you trust at the top to approve code that people post to bug fixes so they act as the gateway for commits.

I would definitely recommend sourceforge, riaforge, or cfopen. I think your product is absolutely fantastic. I also think you have to get it out there quickly and not lose the momentum you?ve got now.

This is very cool!

Can't wait till the next release as all I am stuck on is the CFLOOP function.

Keep up the good work!

Just found out about Smith CF and love the idea. I hope you go open-source soon as I am a CF and Java developer myself. Giving some of my time to help Smith become equal to CF 7 would be a worth while use of my time.

Seems to have lost a little momentum since January..

Hi guys,

We've been working in Madrid with cfml since version 3, and I have been waiting for an open source iniciative on CFML for a looong time.
We have lots and lots of code that we would love to test if you go open source. We made lots of bug hunting for BlueDragon and would love to invest our effort in this smithproject. We could also take care of making debian packages ...

apt-get install tomcat smithproject mywebapp

been dreaming about it for a time.
Keep up the work and know you can count on us if this goes open-source

salud!

Did you all move to a new open source site, and forget to put it on the updates. or was "a matter of days" jumping the gun somewhat?
