Dear Open Hub Users,
We’re excited to announce that we will be moving the Open Hub Forum to

Beginning immediately, users can head over,
register,

On May 1, 2020, we will be freezing https://www.openhub.net/forums and users will not be able to create new discussions. If you have any questions and concerns, please email us at

Hi!
The tags list is very interesting!
https://www.ohloh.net/tags
This is AFAIK the best map of FOSS ever. It will be interesting to see the relations between tags. Ex.: games are mostly made in language X while content management is mostly done in language Y.
Some issues:
1- Since + is not supported everywhere, if I click c++ (2094)
, I get: No projects were found with tag ‘c ’
Yet, there is:
https://www.ohloh.net/tags/cplusplus
2- The is c#:
https://www.ohloh.net/tags/c%23
and:
https://www.ohloh.net/tags/csharp
3- About .NET
There is a tag dotnet (1635) but also net (3123)
I suspect most of the net
are intended to be .net
4- Feature suggestions
4a) a wiki page per tag
Here we could explain what is meant by the tag and we could link to sources such as Wikipedia or domain-specific sites. Here is how WikiMatrix does it: http://www.wikimatrix.org/wiki/feature:Namespaces
4b) tags aliases: as a community, we should maintain a list of equivalents. Ex.:
https://www.ohloh.net/tags/crossplatform
https://www.ohloh.net/tags/cross-platform
If combined with the idea of the wiki pages, we could suggest tag aliases in the wiki pages.
This would avoid duplication and improve out taxonomy of FOSS.
Best regards,
M ;-)
