I visited REALopen.org and liked the site structure

I'll like to see all them from one site. ;-)

Agree wholeheartly, but i hope that the site
works as an incentive for open source developers 
from other platforms (java, perl, python, etc)
to collaborate in these open source projects.

Most open source developers are eager to help
other open source projects, no matter the
platform of choice.

I'll send you a note. :-)

Yes, i agree. But...

...Http serves well as a diffusion platform for 
the open source projects.

Thanks everyone for their responses!
