Summer of Code Org Application Deadline Approaches

We are accepting more organizations this year than last because we want to add a couple hundred more students to the program. If you are part of a great project or know someone who is, we'd love to see an application. Please note that this is for organizations and not for prospective students, that's not for a few more weeks (see the program timeline)!"

  1. Working Application Code - What to do with it? by c0d3r · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I have a working application that I implemented with hopes of getting VC and selling the product, but that's seemed to become an impossibility for an unknown, hence I'm inclined donate the application to the Open Source world. I wonder if this would be a good channel for opening my applications. Its not that I want to make money on them, I just want my code to "live". Right now they're in the state of "a really good working prototype". Then again, i'm an engineer, not a business man or lawyer (can you say GPL?). I've created presentations below.. one is a visual XML ide and the other is a job site data mining application.

    I've got tons of other stuff like this, but don't know what to do with it. Any suggestions or directions anyone?
