Great job! Great to see a large media player such as you are taking steps in this direction. I look forward to trying out your apps!

Thanks, Post! This is a tremendous offer back to the community! ...and it's great to see the Django Project adoption in these releases.

I was in the starting blocks to use django-supertagging. Unfortunatly it seems that I cannot have access yet to the source. The project is not yet listed there: http://opensource.washingtontimes.com/projects/ Am I missing something ? Thank you for open sourcing this. --yml

This is great news! Any one of these applications would be welcome, but all four? Excellent. One question: is there a reason why django-supertagging is in a private repository?

Supertagging is public now.

Wonderful news ! Thanks a lot for considering Open Source development model, that's a great initiative and a great way to improve your code base. However I have two questions .. First I don't find anywhere the repository url.. How can we checkout the source code (assuming you are using a VCS) ? The the seconds, which is also important.. under which license are you releasing these projects ?

Thanks! This is a great move for the Django community.

This is great, nice move. Had an eye on massmedia and looks promising. Thanks

Bravo!

Wow! These look to be great apps. Would you all be interested in helping organize a DC Django group with us?

Any chance on some screenshots of the massmedia plugin?

Mucho thankso, Washington Times!

Tack on that! (Tack is Swedish for "Thank you.")

Hey, guys, like that's so cool!

It looks great! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing. Way to go. This is what makes you the leader of the pack and not the victim of change.

awesome! hats off to you guys! Thanks a lot :)

Gah, massmedia is exactly what I needed a week ago. Ended up sorta starting a project called django-media-uploads, very similar concept. It's really my first contribution to the Django community but is no where near ready. http://github.com/amccloud/django-media-uploads/

As one open source publisher to another, Squiz.net salute you. We went open source with our web CMS 10 years ago and hundreds of governemtn and large client installs later we think you will really see the benefits of this initiative. We are happy to share experience if we can. Good luck.

Very nice! Thanks for sharing your hard work, it's very appreciated :)

Do you remember Pamela Jones from Groklaw? First some background... The first anti-SCO article was published by Pamela Jones on May 17, 2003 and was titled "SCO Falls Downstairs, Hitting Its Head On Every Step". A few days later, she published "Speaking of HIPAA, Do MS's EULAs Violate It?". The original version of this document is still found at http://radio.weblogs.com/0120124/2003/05/22.html . "Speaking of HIPAA, Do MS's EULAs Violate It?" helped relate Pamela Jones of Groklaw to a company named MedAbiliti. One month earlier, MedAbiliti announced "Exemplar International Chooses MedAbiliti for HIPAA Compliance". This press release mentioned Pamela Jones as director for public affairs at MedAbiliti. What product was sold by MedAbiliti? MedAbiliti sold its major product named XM Network to Exemplar International, Inc. XM Network run on Linux and was written on open source software. Exemplar International is known today as Examinetics. The business relation between MedAbiliti and Exemplar International, Inc. was announced on February 18, 2003. About 2 weeks after, SCO filed its lawsuit against IBM. Did Exemplar International questioned MedAbiliti about XM Network and the implications of the SCO lawsuit? Enter Pamela Jones, director for public affairs at MedAbiliti. The Washington Times has given a great example of cooperation to the open-source community unlike the company Pamela Jones worked for in 2003. Groklaw constantly preaches about open source values, yet its parent company MedAbiliti didn't share XM Network with the community. All documents related to the above are still available in their original sources of publications. The Groklaw - Pamela Jones timeline at http://www.krsaborio.net/research/linux/related/groklaw.htm provides copies of all the documents to easily understand the facts.

Wow I'm impressed, Kudos.

Obama is all about Open Source, look it up, it's an anti-capitalist leftist philosophy. I expect better from WT.

Thank you for supporting Django so much!

Hey, Thanks for doing this. Im definitely using all these resources. Hope to return the favor with my own collection!

This is a great move! Thank you for contributing! I wish the New York Times read this and follow in your footsteps - in particular with some of the wonderful Flash presentation solutions they have over there. :)

Hello, It would also be useful to have a mailing list to discuss some of the issue with the developers. I have been recently working with django-supertagging and while doing this I open some feature requests and bug reports. It would make the process using and improving these apps a bit easier. Thank you for sharing the source code with us. --yml

This is really good idea, especially when FOSS is still stronger and soon we will observe decrease in MS businesses (comment from Poland)

Kudos, Richard Dee. Well clarified.
