KForge : A system for managing software and knowledge projects

KForge is a system for managing software and knowledge projects. It re-uses existing best-of-breed tools such as versioned storage (subversion), a tracker (trac), and a wiki (trac or moinmoin), integrating them with the system's own facilities (projects, users, permissions, etc.). KForge also provides a complete Web interface for project administration, as well a fully-developed plugin system, so new services and features can be easily added.

libextractor is a library used to extract meta-data from files of arbitrary type. It is designed to use helper-libraries to perform the actual extraction, and to be trivially extendable by linking against external extractors for additional file types. The goal is to provide developers of file-sharing networks, file managers, and WWW-indexing bots with a universal library to obtain meta-data about files. It includes a shell-command and bindings for Java (JNI) and Python.

Black Box Voting (.ORG) : A nonpartisan, nonprofit, 501c(3) organization

Black Box Voting (.ORG) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit, 501c(3) organization. We are the official consumer protection group for elections, funded by citizen donations.

The mission of Black Box Voting is to ensure fair and accurate elections through citizen oversight.

Black Box Voting investigates election problems, communicates the problems to the citizenry, and teaches citizens how to manage their own government -- which means teaching citizens how to identify elections problems and providing citizens with the tools to oversee elections. Black Box Voting takes the position that being a citizen means taking an active role in government oversight. Elections procedures must be fair, they must be inclusive, they must prevent voter disenfranchisement, they must protect each individual's vote by reducing the ability to tamper or miscount. Systems do not achieve quality automatically -- citizen oversight is the key ingredient to fair and accurate elections . Because We, the People are the owners of our government, we citizens should expect to take an active role in managing the quality of the government systems we have created.
