As a Microsoft .NET developer I have noticed a marked increase in the number of new Open Source frameworks and software tools that directly impact how your design a software solution. So much so that if you don't happen to be talking to the right person at the right time you may miss a whole major development. I started to wonder if there is anyone out there who is tracking and charting the "most active open source projects" over time. To be able to visualize what are the up and coming and most active open source projects appearing in any given space/category (e.g c#/web development space) would be incredibly useful. Searching around on the web I have only managed to find visualizations of specific projects (e.g. code_swarm and Gource) but nothing tracking Open Source projects over-all.
Do you know of any such sites?
http://www.ohloh.net/ is such a website - provides description, summaries and categorization for many open source projects; shows info about commit activities and lots of other useful info.
for an example check this out - http://www.ohloh.net/p/jQuery/analyses/latest
Hope this helps :o)

as the final project for a programming course I took I've made a small tool which deals with databases issues. It works and I think it could be useful to others, so I'd like to put the code on the net to see if it actually is.
I'm aware of various source code hosts such as GitHub or Google Code, however they seem more oriented towards group development and I'm not sure if they're good for individual complete projects as well. I'm not saying I'm opposed to collaboration, but those platforms just seem a bit too much for something so simple.
Does anyone have any idea on how I should share the code?
Github would be fine - just because git allows multiple developers on a project doesn't mean it is required.
Most of the complexity is there if you need it but you do not have to ever visit those screens. The last time I looked at the network view for my more complex projects was a long time ago!

I have recently study on how to implement WebRTC MCU software on the server. I find an open source project called licode, but it is difficult for me to understand its source code. Can you recommmend some articles or documents about explaining the source code of licode, or there is another open source project you can recommend about implementing WebRTC MCU?
Janus is what you are looking for. It is the new cool kid on the block and I've found it to be really easy to understand since it doesn't make assumptions in the signaling plane or the features you'll use in your gateway.
It comes with a core that acts as a central hub for browser connections and then implements all its features with plugins. For instance here you have the Video MCU plugin code:
https://github.com/meetecho/janus-gateway/blob/master/plugins/janus_videoroom.c
As you can see it is programmed in C and comes with a JS API and clear code samples. Give it a go, I think it is ideal for a project study compared to already bloated multi-stack solutions (Licode, Jitsi Videobridge, etc)
Hope it helps!

We've been using OCS-NG to gather our computer inventory for the past 2 years. About 6 months ago, AVG Antivirus started picking up on the agent it uses to gather computer information as a "potentially harmful program". We've placed that in our ignore list, but the agent no longer appears to be updating our database. After much consideration and frustration trying to diagnose, I've decided to move away from OCS-NG as well as GLPI (with which it interfaces nicely).
I'm looking for a replacement for both of these applications, but primarily OCS-NG. My requirements are:
Open Source (preferably free)
Windows/Linux inventory agents
I would like it if the system was able to be integrated with a helpdesk system such as OTRS or the like.
Thanks
On this moment there is no 'canned' asset discovery solution which has an out-of-the-box integration with OTRS.
However, OTRS is able to import CI data from CSV files. Also, we're hard at work cooking up a new SOAP/REST/JSON interface.
We're planning on integrating with asset discovery solutions, and would be open for people wanting to help with us on creating and testing the integration, and/or help from anyone working on FOSS asset discovery projects.

I'm just about to rewrite my personal site as a learn-as-you-go project and am thinking of open-sourcing the code (see this question).
Are there any examples of large-ish web sites (not desktop applications) which have made their code open-source? Or is this generally thought of as a bad idea because it would be easier for a malicious hacker to find any security holes in the code?
WordPress is the best example, I can think of in your case.
And, the security implications come from the loopholes, you might leave by mistake or in coding process. But, then when you are open-sourcing the project, a lot of people may contribute and help you resolve those issues, which is how WordPress also works. They have a bug-tracker setup for them for this purpose.

i like to browse open source software that are released as public domain type of software license , is there such list ?
if i think about it is there some kind of index that sort open source applications by license ?
Thanks
Ohloh is an open source directory which lists projects, listing their creators and people using it.
You can search for software with a specific license, e.g.
license:Public Domain
freshmeat
freshmeat maintains the Web's largest
index of Unix and cross-platform
software, themes and related
"eye-candy", and Palm OS software.
Thousands of applications, which are
preferably released under an open
source license, are meticulously
cataloged in the freshmeat database,
and links to new applications are
added daily. Each entry provides a
description of the software, links to
download it and to obtain more
information, and a history of the
project's releases, so readers can
keep up-to-date on the latest
developments.
CodePlex is a good source for .NET open source stuff.
