Adam_S 09-12-2002, 09:03 PM There is only one problem I find with opensource projects. They tend to dissapear as quickly as they pop up. Its a serious consideration when the system will most likely support the major part of your business. Someone has to support it until its stopped being used. SimpleCP is a free cp. ckpeter 09-12-2002, 10:09 PM The only two stable/working ones (that I know for sure work) are webcp and simplecp. There are a few others, but I have never seen them working (personally). Peter MaB 09-12-2002, 10:13 PM Yes, unfortunately, open source projects can only survive if the people let it :( If no one helped linus, we wouldnt have linux. we have to put food on our tables too. however, the plus of open source cp's are, that unlike closed source cps, if the developers go away, no new (official) features would be added but anyone can look at the code and fix any problems - which is why alot of people embrace open source Binx 09-12-2002, 11:02 PM Another good one is webmin http://www.webmin.net/ cyansmoker 09-13-2002, 01:24 AM Yep, butterflycp, for instance, is going through a mini-crisis where, when it comes to coding, most developers have run away. Too bad, we have a lot of features running...:( whctrlpanel 09-13-2002, 11:53 AM where is simplecp at? url? cyansmoker 09-13-2002, 12:08 PM This may seem hard to believe, but after intensive investigations it appears that the URL is http://www.simplecp.com :D MaB 09-13-2002, 01:53 PM *avi points down to his signature...* interactive 09-16-2002, 12:42 AM simple cp looks plain and simple...i'd personally buy one just cause you get alot... |
