SourceForge

SourceForge is a collaborative software development management system. SourceForge software is sold by VA Software. It provides a front-end to a range of software development lifecycle services and integrates with a number of open source applications (such as PostgreSQL and CVS).

SourceForge.net is a centralized location for software developers to control and manage open source software development, and acts as a source code repository. SourceForge.net is hosted by VA Software and runs a version of the SourceForge software. A large number of open source projects are hosted on the site (it had reached 98,000 by April 2005), although it does contain a lot of dormant or single-user projects.

The Free Software Foundation created their Savannah development site as a response to the perceived proprietrisation (closed source state) of the SourceForge software. Several collaborative sites now exist that utilise the SourceForge software.

The Sourceforge code was once available publicly, but later VA Software decided not to make any further open source releases. Last officially available code was 2.5, and the CVS version just before closing was 2.61. Savannah is a derived work based on the 2.0 version. In late 2003, VA Software issued the first release of SourceForge Enterprise Edition 4.x - a complete rewrite of the application as a Java-J2EE application. Reports from organizations deploying SourceForge 4.x indicate that performance and scalability are significantly greater than the SourceForge 3.x or preeceeding 2.x code base. SourceForge 4.x also supports a broad SOAP XML Web Services API for further integration and extensibility.

Gforge.org: One of the Sourceforge programmers started a significant rewrite—the Gforge project—based on the last known CVS version of Sourceforge. New features have been added and free development continues there.

Science kits, science lessons, science toys, maths toys, hobby kits, science games and books - these are some of many products that can help give your kid an edge in their science fair projects, and develop a tremendous interest in the study of science. When shopping for a science kit or other supplies, make sure that you carefully review the features and quality of the products. Compare prices by going to several online stores. Read product reviews online or refer to magazines.

Start by looking for your science kit review or science toy review. Compare prices but remember, Price $ is not everything. Quality does matter.
