2005/12/05 - It is amazing what you can accomplish...

..if you don't care who gets the credit (Harry S Truman). In this spirit I am making a few projects open-source for all to look at and hopefully contribute to. These include scrpbk.com (a book marking site), prlmnks.org (RSS feeds to perlmonks.org), some forums software written in Perl and Tolk - a translation system.

Here are links to the projects (and sites if appropriate):

• scrpbk.com - (dev site)
• prlmnks.org - (dev site)
• Forum - (dev site)
• Tolk - (dev site)

For me easily the most interesting is Tolk - which is where I will be spending what little time that I have. The idea is simply to make translating things easier, without letting anything get in the way. See the dev site for more details.

Much praise must go to the people behind trac and subversion though. If these two projects had not made it so easy to put projects on the web (source code, bugs, wiki, planning, etc) it would probably not have happened.
