There was an amazing response to yesterday's post – not only did readers come up with plenty of names, but lots of people volunteered to help. As a result, I'm feeling under a certain amount of pressure for this project to actually take shape. The final name chosen is Noda Time. We now have a Google Code Project and a Google Group (/mailing list). Now we just need some code… I figured it would be worth explaining a bit more about my vision for the project. Obviously I'm only one contributor, and I'm expecting everyone to add there own views, but this can act as a starting point. I want this project to be more than just a way of getting better date and time handling on .NET. I want it to be a shining example of how to build, maintain and deploy an open source .NET library. As some of you know, I have a few other open source projects on the go, and they have different levels of polish. Some have downloadable binaries, some don't. They all have just-about-enough-to-get-started documentation, but not nearly enough, really. They have widely varying levels of test coverage. Some are easier to build than others, depending on what platform you're using.
