Hi all,

This is totally off-topic, apart from in a meta-sense of Ant being an open source project...

I'm finding that between work projects I still have loads of time to experiment, but that I lack a focus and direction for these experiments. Usually this means that I stop coding and do something else (write, have a coffee etc). But I'd like to really pick up C again (I'm so damn rusty with it), or move on to a completely different language (Haskell, Erlang, Lisp, Python etc) whilst contributing to an open source project so that my learning is always focused on the immediate problem - fix bug x, implement feature y etc.

So my question is - which projects do you guys get involved in and why?

I tried helping out with asterisk (again to polish my C), but they have a very strange dual-license model that I wasn't entirely comfortable with and they refused to accept patches for bugs in their issue tracker until I had signed a disclaimer/waiver - this seemed a little over the top, so I just dropped out.

Kev
