What about rewriting Codeproject to Asp.Net (c# or mc++) finaly  ?
i'm only pointer to myself

... like KaZaA, DC etc... but you can only share source code?
But it would take a long time before people get to know about the program...

OK I have an idea and I'm currently working on it at the moment. Will post it as an article once it has gone beyond the pre-alpha stage

Call me stupid, but is there another way to make one work ?
I can't seem to think outside of the box on this.

Three ideas.
1. The idea that Chris Maunder mentioned. The good thing about that project is that it is doable, practical. It can consist of a foundation layer and then phases as new controls are built. Results can be quickly achieved which is vital to the success of a project team like this. The down side is it is web-dev and I know not everyone here is interested in that.
2. A code snippet library sharing app and service, thing. Naturally with a Visual Studio add-in. There are a lot of them out there but after having spent a week downloading and testing most of them the common problem is they are nice but hardcore programmers will hate them. You know, the command line type of guy. Most of them are a pain to setup and have a bunch of features that hardcore okes will never use. It needs to be something really slick, something focused and direct that works like a hardcore chap expects it to.
3. A project management system. Phase tracking, bugs, document storage, client feedback area etc. Not a source control system, but a system for the management of a project that both managers/clients and the developers are happy with. We all bitch about management of projects, so lets do something about it for once.
Also for the project in general, especially the first time out, I would like to say; Think small, think focused, think useful.
An operating system, a game? Come on guys, we know how that will go, it won't. We need something that will do one or two things very, very well. Something that can start small, a foundation layer, be released, see results and then can be extended as needed.
It must be attainable.
Management of this is going to be a nightmare. People get bored, go on holiday, disagree, fail to deliver or just disapear. Splinter groups will form.
So if we do something small and focused the first time it sets a good precedent for later, larger projects. Lets rather get our internals working before we try and fix the world

I'm interested, but I don't have Windows 2000/XP, so I can't test ASP .NET stuff. That doesn't mean I can't code them, though.

This is needed so we can work out the bugs and see how this whole project thing works out. Use a spiral model. Build small, then build layer by layer like on onion.
This doesn't mean you can't have a grand idea. Just keep the initial requirements to a minimum.

I'm up for participation in this one.

Why don't you split up your ideas, so that we easier can vote on the one we like.

Please put these ideas in seperate messages so they can be voted on individually.
Then add your general comment to the comments section.
We gotta follow the rules Paul. 
Thanks.

Apologies Saheeb. I will repost.
On that though really we should have another thread called Final Ideas (you create it and populate it with each seperate idea, merging similar or ideas which are the same.) Then there can be a call for two days of voting (not over a weekend) for the final tally. As it is now the main rush of voting was probably over before the last few ideas.
Not that I mind much either way really, whatever gets us going is the best

That's what I generally had in mind.

Write a MFC book based on the best articles here at Codeproject. We rewrite the articles, update the source code like UGLY and publish the result as a book.

How about some type of real-time collaboration add-in for VS, kinda like netmeeting, that would allow us to log into a session and work together on the same solution. It would need to incorporate a messaging and whiteboard system as well as mechanisms for who reads/writes the files and a way to track changes/et. al. May seem overwhelming at first, but with enough polishing, we may end up with a workable environment.

Well, at the risk of getting flamed, and as I have seen a couple of application framework ideas posted, how about helping with the Visual Component Framework[^]? It's easy to use, better laid out than MFC, and will eventually run on multiple platforms (the GTK and Mac port are in progress, and I see no reason it couldn't work on devices like WinCE).
In addition it has a really cool RTTI/Reflection API making writing plugin/add-ins a cinch.

I was working on a tool that I planned to use to help manage systems and resources. I called it mprms, Multipurpose Resource Management System. Since it was a personal project it got sidetracked due to workload and never restarted.
It basically helps an administrator to manage his resources. If it is a resource, disk space, memory, processes, then this can monitor it. No real limit to what you can monitor. You could have a device that senses temperature. This could have a module that monitors that device and does something in response to a threshold. All you need is an interface. It isn't limited to a monitoring a computer, the computer is just the tool of choice.
Build an engine that does nothing useful. The engine does two things. Reads a configuration file, loads individual modules that do the real work. Each module is a specialized module that performs a specific function. Like the temperature monitor.
I have documentation and if anyone thinks this is worthwhile I will write up an article and submit as a project option.

It's probably been done a bunch of different ways, but to develop on Paul's idea, I'd say we need to bootstrap ourselves. A nifty little task manager would be seem to be the first thing, then the other stuff Paul mentioned.

I don't have any particularly concrete ideas on this, but I'm really frustrated how multi-threading hasn't taken off (at least, it seems that way to me!), especially regarding multiprocessors or distributed computing. There must be trillions to the trillionth idle cycles spent by computers. And yes, there's some commercial stuff out there that can distribute processing over the Internet, but the last time I checked, it was bloody expensive.
So that's the idea, I guess--an Internet distributed computing engine to consume all those idle cycles. I haven't checked to see if there's already a freeware/shareware of this (probably there is, but I didn't find anything a year ago when I was looking).

It is a great idea. I want to do this. With the ability for the distributed process to yield to native (local user) processes, so that it does not actually create problems for the willing donors of CPU cycles, this would be a tremendous system.
What we propose is a
task scheduler that can que jobs across multiple job queues running on multiple machines. The central dispatcher is capable of monitor progress and identify abnormal termination of tasks (caused by the remote machine having a power failure, app crash etc) and dispatch it to another job queue.
An application using this can create stand alone jobs that is dispatched using the scheduler. The job itself contains the complete context required for its progress. The job also can implement progress status updates to the local job queue, that can be send back to the scheduler, so that it can take some scheduling decisions.
In short, a parallel processing system that can scale to any number of machines, but controlled from a cental location. Amazing!

Your description sounds exactly like what I have had in mind for years now. And I agree--let's do it! I'm looking forward to your ideas--I don't have anything concrete in mind except the vision, and you were right on target with stand alone jobs that can be re-dispatched, etc.
