well what is your question?
When my project finally gets approved:
Can I have 2 links on my page
1) One for the application
2) One for the actual source code
Also, When they speak of "open source", does that only mean sharing your source code, or does it mean other things.
sure you can have both. and open source would be that the source is open for everyone
Thanks for the response.Quote:

I am thinking that "open source" doesn't necessarily just mean that you have to show your source code. I am thinking another form of it could just many anyone can use your application.
Would that be correct?
SourceForge provides teams with both a home page and a project page.Quote:

The project page gives you access to the source code, forums, bug tracker, and so on. You can also access the source code of any project using a Subversion client.
Correct. In fact, it has a stronger definition than that. See 'The Open Source Definition'.Quote:

My project has finally been approved.
As usual, I am a little confused about:
1) How to upload my source code
2) How to upload my exe for download
I read about CVS and SVN, but there is only 1 developer in the project. Do I have to use those tools to upload 1-2 or is there another way?
I will continue to read more documentation on their site, but at this point, I am not sure what to do. I would prefer to do it the best way (like Notepad++ project), but I heard there can be some issues with CVS (Subversion) and VS.Net 2005.
Please disregard the previous post.
I have figured everything out, although I am having some issues uploading files.
