BitsMonitor on CodePlex!

I just released BitsMonitor on CodePlex. There is a default release containing 32bit binaries, all the sources are available to download from CodePlex site. I have spent last couple of days preparing first public release of another of my spare-time projects, but it is still not ready. I plan to release it next week.

BitsMonitor is being released under MIT license (so, you may do anything you want with it, almost everything ;) There is something that bothers me – I have used BITS Interop code provided (as a part of solution attached to an article) by J.Clark in MSDN Magazine article. And my question is: what is the license of all the sources released as a part of MSDN Magazine articles? Are the sources free? Did I violate the license or not (by including part of J.Clark solution in my own project)? I have found a question somewhere on MSDN forum concerning that issue, but there were no answer given. I have contacted J.Clark, but didn’t get any answer until today (almost a week have passed). If you know more about MSDN Magazine licenses for source code – please let me know!

BitsMonitor – first project

How should a blog of someone calling oneself software developer be organized? What should it contain? I think, that such a technical blog is not only a great place to share some code snippets or thoughts about programming in general, but it is also a great opportunity to share your projects with broad (I hope ;) audience. Today I have created special page – “My Projects” that will contain all my work – I hope that some of you find at least some of them interesting and/or useful.

First project I have put on there and created special page for – is called BitsMonitor – it is small utility that uses BITS to download files. You may read more about it on its dedicated page…

Enjoy!
