[Ctm-devel] other projects similar to ctm

[Bryan M. <bmu...@gm...>]

CTMers,

Somehow I've recently discovered a few other projects similar to what
we are planning.  Most are open source even.  We should definitely
take a look at what they've got, see if we can leverage it, or if
maybe we should abandon this and just work with them.  Here's what
I've found:

Open Source:
http://codewurks.com/scoutTrak/
http://rkirkpat.net/software/ (the project under "Database
Applications", not an active project?)
http://www.jaynorth.net/?view=3Dscouttracker

Free:
https://www.scout-master.com/Index.aspx (crappy UI, but kind of what
we are planning, I think.  It's just some scouting parents, so we
could probably talk them into open sourcing it, but it's all asp :-( )

I haven't had much chance to really dive into any of these yet, but I
think we should take a serious look at them.  Maybe we could divide up
who is going to investigate each one?

P.S.  Nolan, are you on this mailing list yet?  You should be.

P.P.S.  By the way, I got most of these from:

Once we have something working, we should totally get it ScoutNet Certified=
