This year we are actively working to enable open source collaboration amongst our participants. The following projects will have a project leader available. It is this person's job to ensure you will get up to speed and learn how best to contribute to the project. 

    NOTE: If you're a project leader and want to capture a record of participant collaboration, assign someone to take notes and link to them here.

               Feel free to make any updates/corrections. 

Below are the projects currently represented at this year's Alt.Net:

• Schema Manager (to be opensourced in time for Alt.Net @ https://github.com/cheezburger): Database migrations akin to Rails migrations in the sense that it allows you to manage your database schema from your source code, although it operates on a different principle than Rails' migrations.

That's a lot of OSS (Open Source Software) for one conference. We hope that you take advantage of this and make some small contribution to at least one of the above projects as a result. After all, for a small OSS project, the best way to say thank you is to contribute in some small way.
