Rod Paddack gave this session wearing a great geek shirt. His enthusiasm for open source was reciprocated by many in the audience. Here is the list:
- SharpZibLib Compression Library
- PDFSharp.com creates PDF files
- CruiseControl continuous build system - never upset a build master
- Nant another build tool
- NUnit a developer's unit test framework
- NHibernate - persisting plain .NET objects to and from an underlying relational database
- DotNetNuke - mega portal system in VB.net
- AJAX Asp.Net ToolKit - very cool AJAX controls
- Ghengis - don't know what it really does but the website has other interesting tools
- MySQL - not sure how open source this really is
- ConnectionStrings.com - this one I need
- CodePlex.com - open source code repository
- Thoughtworks.com - lots of stuff
- Microsoft Patterns and Practices - cool stuff
- Code.MSDN.COM - for small bits of code snippets instead of the big stuff at codeplex
Mentions during session included http://code.google.com/
