Open Source Project & Language Selection
- by James
I'm getting ready to start an open-source project that will target .NET/Mono.
For those who have started their own open source venture...
Do you let the fact that a project is going to be open-source weigh on the decision of what language to use?
For example. Most .NET open-source projects are written in C#. However, if you were more comfortable with VB.NET, Boo, Nemerle, etc... would you use it?
What other considerations are there?
This particular project will be a core library and application for geocaching. Similar to GSAK.
