    Starting such an undertaking is not easy. I am a programmer, not an trained promoter :-) Please join, if there is any interest. Lothar

      Not so much a straight-out question as a puzzled rhetorical question. Isn't that what CodeProject is about, publishing and promoting open source software?

      I was mor used to post technical programming articles here. Thus my articles about coding with modeldriven methodologies. I was more likely used to announce my software releases at freshmeat since 2003. I am sorry for this confusion. It's always a search where to place content correctly and not violating any rules. Thanks, Lothar PS. I would stop the messaging here for now and going to push my intention by implementing it :-)

          And so the first thing you do is advertise it on a site that already does that? Just what is your definition of spam? Because mine includes "site driving" posts with no other value...

                I guess they did not have a bad intention. After I found out about their intent I posted a message in the Press release forum. It fits there because it is newsworthy, and their goal is to add an alternative to the recently discontinued Freecode website. Which makes it a tool, is free and therefore fits to the Press Releases.

                  Presumably the alternative is rotten meat?

                  - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

                    Cool, however, nowadays places like Code Project, Stack Overflow, and GitHub are great places for free code. Marc

                      Or Codeproject: Cooked Meat. Which is the way I prefer it!

                        I initially upvoted your post, since I mistook it (all) as sarcasm. Sorry for the false vote of confidence - I didn't realize you were one of the 3 spammers.

                            Isn't it advertising? I know guess you created it and of course want it to succeed, but is this the right way? May be you can contact team CP and buy some advertising space.
