Well it looks like Freshmeat is going to come through for me after all. They just couldn't find my Unix source code (it was in CVS, but was not in a tarball). I've made some minor changes to my web site to make the Unix stuff more visible, so now it should go through easily.
Speaking of the web site: http ://ntxshape.sourceforge.net/opensource.html might be an interesting read. It talks about the different open source licenses, and how NTXShape ended up with MPL.
Well, I have my project NTXShape running on SourceForge. Freshmeat won't take it though, saying they only list Unix projects. So, I rolled up my sleeves and got it working on Linux - this was on my short-term plan anyway and most of the groundwork was done - and then re-submitted to freshmeat. Again they say I must support Unix. So last night I got it to compile and run on Solaris/Sparc, and compared the results to the Win32 and Linux versions. They all work the same. Still they say "no freshmeat for you."
The Linux and Sparc support were on my to-do list, so I'm glad I found an excuse to do that, but now I want the immediate gratification!
New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.
