Tracking tool for open source projects
July 29, 2008 2:09 PM Subscribe
Does there exist a web-based tool that tracks open source projects and informs subscribers (by email, RSS etc.) about major developments, e.g. when they release version 1.0?
All projects are not equal! Some have a single mailing list, some have dedicated announcement lists, some have strange conventions.
I would like to be able to track a number of projects via simple view, e.g. web-based RSS reader style, like Google Reader. Or a service could provide RSS feeds directly.

Source Forge?

Response by poster: Thank you for the suggestions!
With respect to Freshmeat and SourceForge, the tool I have in mind could aggregate their data, I suppose. SourceForge only hosts some projects, and Freshmeat doesn't have everything.
