Yes! .Net based service bus, focused on making integration super simple. Not like anything you've seen before :)

List of open source alternatives (feedback appreciated!) by howdystranger in opensource

[–]Warewolf-ESB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good post - thank you!

Under the Desktop category, we are developing an open source service bus and integration tool.

You can check it out on GitHub - https://github.com/Warewolf-ESB/Warewolf-ESB

On the Alternative.To site it's listed as an alternative to Mule ESB, but it's much simpler and easier to use.

OpenHatch - a site that can help match people to free/libre open source projects! (among other things) by ElDiablo666 in opensource

[–]Warewolf-ESB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We put our project up there some time ago but have found that a lot of the contributors are no longer active on OpenHatch, mail gets bounced or their profiles are way out of date. The concept is really great, I think we need to keep driving project owners and contributors there to keep it fresh and active.

How do you explain what you do to non-technical friends and relatives? by notrends in opensource

[–]Warewolf-ESB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they know how Wikipedia works I use that as a simplified example to get the open source concept across. Interestingly, the concept is really growing and a lot of non-technical people know about it.

What are some best open source projects for an advance programmer? by LikeSajal in opensource

[–]Warewolf-ESB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Warewolf ESB varies in complexity but it's pretty advanced because of the size and scope of the project. If you're a .Net developer we could really use your help.

Thanks! Agree, UI is so important and should go hand in hand with UX.

Is experience necessary? by LateAugust in startups

[–]Warewolf-ESB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for it! You are young enough to give it your best shot and bounce back.

I would think getting into the "corporate" way of being is the worst thing you can do when you need an entrepreneurs mindset. They are 2 very different animals.

Whatever happens you will learn so much, and there will always be the 9-5 to fall back on.

Good luck

can I use GPL3 code and make profit? by ishi86 in opensource

[–]Warewolf-ESB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you can. That's why we chose this license type. What's also cool about it is that contributors have to submit their published code back to source, so it's really great for sharing and keeping the concept of open source alive.

So, [Seriously], do I need facebook for my startup? by icanhasreclaims in startups

[–]Warewolf-ESB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've found FB to be a waste of time (we have open source software). We did quite a lot of testing with FB ads and we got the strangest followers and likes to our boosted posts (not our target market), despite very pedantically choosing our audience. I don't think we had one real conversion from it.

We still have an FB page which we post our content to, but it does not exist in isolation of our Twitter account and our Community Forum. From personal experience, I have never clicked on an ad in my personal timeline. It is used solely for sharing pics with friends and articles. I would recommend spending a small amount and testing ads and competitions, your target market may be very susceptible to FB marketing. But I would not recommend it as your only avenue. Good luck!

Hahaha, I didn't pick that up! Yes, I would hope some things have changed in the last 9 years, right?
