Possible Open Source Projects


Many of us are excited about working on a Java-based Open Source project. We discussed some ideas for projects at the March 7 meeting. We invite you to submit ideas of your own -- please join our discussion forum and submit any ideas you may have.

After looking at our options, we have decided to settle on the Job Queue project. Download the Source and add your improvements!
