Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone here has any opinions or insights on the topic of what
would be the best forum to use to distribute a uClinux based project. I've
been working on an mp3-player appliance that runs a server that can be
controlled locally via an C-API. On top of the C-API, I've written a simple
XML/HTTP interface that can be used by applications on the network. I also
provide a very simple AJAX-style web UI that uses the XML interface. This is
something like the commercial product Sonos, but with a simpler interface, and
fewer features (for now anyway). It's x86 right now, but should be portable
to other architectures, since everything is built from source.
In the past few months, I've been cleaning up the code and stabilizing the
internal C-API, as well as the upper layer XML API, and once I feel comfortable
with these, I'd like to turn it into an open source project. I'm not sure
what would be the best way to distribute this type of project, though. I know
that uClinux-dist itself is on SourceForge, but I'm not sure about systems that
are built on uClinux. Is SourceForge an appropriate forum for this kind of
thing, or is there something else that would be better suited? I'd ideally
also like to distribute a small virtual-machine image, so that people could see
a working example without having to install a boot-able image... does anyone
know if SourceForge or other open-source forums would prohibit distributing
binary VM images?
Any comments or suggestions would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
--Dave
