Open Source Projects

General Info

The team here at SLOTechs is dedicated to open source software. To keep costs down and keep inovation up, we participate in open source projects and release some of our own projects into the public domain. Information about those projects can be found here.

Anonymous CVS access

SLOTechs' open source projects are available via cvs. If you are working on an open source project and would like to have it available via CVS, but don't have the resources to run your own server, we may be able to host it for you. E-mail cvs@slotechs.com for more info.

Server connect info:: :pserver:cvs@cvs.slotechs.com:/usr/local/cvs/opensource

PHP includes

A collection of php include files to make web sites easier to maintain. The CVS module name is 'sb_inc'. The rpm is here.

PHP pages

A collection of php pages to make web sites easier to maintain. The CVS module name is 'sb_pages'. These pages require the 'sb_inc' module above to be in the php include path.

PHP pages modules

Each module can be checked out separately if you only want part. If you just want to add the news module (for instance) to an existing site, try 'cvs -d:pserver:cvs@cvs.slotechs.com:/usr/local/cvs/opensource co -d news sb_pages_news' to get the news modules in a directory named news. The module names and a short description follow:

sb_pages_admin - Administration pages for other modules.
sb_pages_chat - Chat.
sb_pages_email - E-mail sending.
sb_pages_error - Error pages (404, etc.) to override defaults.
sb_pages_images - Sample images for news, etc. modules.
sb_pages_news - News.
sb_pages_people - Phone/address list.
sb_pages_photos - Photo album (still in early development).
sb_pages_site - Common site pages (login, logout, search, etc.).
sb_pages_inc - Sample include files used by other modules.

Other RPMS

We have created some rpms for other projects, either because we didn't like the ones that existed or there weren't any. Some of them are here:
