The mid-year honor for Project of the Month goes to Silex, an RIA that lets you build Flash Web sites for Flash Player 7, 8, 9, and 10. The Silex project has been going strong ever since its lead developers met by chance 10 years ago. You can read all about their chance encounter along with all the other details about Silex on the June Project of the Month page.
Like many projects hosted at SourceForge, the Silex team is spread out all over the place. Ten members gave more than a month of their time recently to meet in Paris and work full-time — without pay — getting Silex ready for its next release. Talk about dedication! Once you’re done getting the scoop on Silex at this month’s POTM page, you need to visit the project’s blog. Even though it’s written primarily in French, there’s no mistaking the energy and enthusiasm of this team.
