Support Tiki (and your favorite Free/Open Source projects) on Ohloh.net
<div style="float:right;"><img src="http://info.tiki.org/display121" alt="Ohloh logo" /></div>Ohloh is free, public directory of open source projects. More than a simple listing, however, Ohloh is community that provides extensive analytic and historical data about free and open source (FOSS) projects. You can think of it as "Crowd-sourcing intelligence about thousands of FOSS projects."
Ohloh has an extensive tagging system that you can use to search for specific projects. For example, Smarty (the template engine used in Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware) is highly popular and used by many applications. Simply visit http://www.ohloh.net/tags/smarty to find other projects that use Smarty. You can even use the Related Tags feature to find projects that share similar technologies or topics. If you find incorrect or missing information, you can easily update the information (just like Wikipedia) by logging in.
With Ohloh, you can analyze FOSS projects and quickly generate reports based on license, programming language, size of development community, and so on. You can select projects from the directory and then easily compare them, side-by-side. For example, this link (http://www.ohloh.net/p/compare?project_0=Tiki+Wiki+CMS+Groupware&project_1=Apache+HTTP+Server&project_2=jQuery) displays the development history and code analysis of Tiki, Apache HTTP Server, and jQuery.
Ohloh is also about community building. For each developer on a project, you can review their participation to determine if they are active participants in the community, their background and expertise, and how well respected they are by their peers.
