Well, all the Open Source GIS, like GRASS, Qgis, OpqnJUMP etc have their code for download. GRASS has a programmers guide (or of sorts).. will it not be of help. Ravi Kumar

Im really looking for something that covers the basic principles. Im starting a new vector-based GIS for a volunteer group and I was hoping to find some vendor-neutral material in this area. Ive been using the Designing Geodatabases: Case Studies in GIS Data Modeling Book by ESRI when I decided it would be nice to have a tutorial for people who decide to design their first GIS outside of ESRIs world. I made an outline for such a document or tutorial which you can find here: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=df5nfmf8_30rvgj7j I thought that I would try to review other material on the subject, if there was any, before I write the article. I appreciate any references or suggestions. Landon (A.K.A. The Sunburned Surveyor) P.S. Im going to shoot this off to the Geowanking list as well.
