Mindquarry is an Open Source collaborative software platform for file sharing (documents, images, media files, etc.), task and project management, team collaboration and Wiki editing that meshes simplicity and functionality. As a result, knowledge workers are able to connect with team members and share information from wherever they are, effectively improving team-work and increasing productivity within the company.
Open Forum is an application providing a Wiki style collaboration platform. It comes ready to run out of the box and has an integrated web server and user authentication.
In addition to the standard Wiki functions of page editing, OpenForum allows the Wiki platform to be extended, tailored and integrated with existing systems. This is achieved by the use of server side Javascript scripts and Java plugins. The server side scripts can be edited from within the Wiki itself. In fact all the Wiki actions, such as editing pages, uploading attachments and controlling access are defined in Javascript scripts that can be edited from within the Wiki.
* OpenForum has the ability to serve real-time content mixed with static content using a number of AJAX style functions.
* OpenForum can access databases, REST applications and Xml based web services as well as being able to provide services to other applications.
* OpenForum has a rich set of templateing functions to enable the Wiki to have a consistent look and feel.
* Unlike many Wiki's, OpenForum allows pages to be organised hierarchically with hierarchical templates and access control.

Projektarbeit im Team heisst, täglich mit unzähligen E-mails, Messages, Dokumenten in verschiedenen Versionen, Aufgaben, Notizen und Freigaben konfrontiert zu werden.
Mit Collanos Workplace kann Ordnung in dieses Chaos gebracht werden, indem Collanos Workplace jedem Team seinen virtuellen Raum für die Zusammenarbeit zur Verfügung stellt. Dort können Teammitglieder direkt Teaminformationen gemeinsam nutzen und bearbeiten.
Im "klassischen" Internet liegt Wissen vorrangig in Form von Dokumenten vor. Dem Anwender bleibt die Möglichkeit, auf dieses Wissen direkt oder mit Hilfe von Suchmaschinen zuzugreifen. Eine direkte Kommunikation zwischen den Trägern von Wissen findet dabei selten und wenn dann meist zeitlich verzögert, etwa in Form von Foren oder Blogeinträgen, statt. Im SPREE Projekt stehen hingegen keine Dokumente sondern die Wissensträger selbst im Vordergrund. Statt einer Liste von Dokumenten zu einer bestimmten Fragestellung identifiziert SPREE die anderen Nutzer des Systems (Experten), welche aufgrund ihres Profils und ihrer bisherigen Aktivitäten am qualifiziertesten für die Beantwortung der Fragestellung erscheinen. Gleichzeitig bietet das SPREE-Portal dem Anwender die Möglichkeit, direkt mit den identifizierten Experten etwa über Chat zu kommunizieren.
Quassel IRC is a modern, cross-platform, distributed IRC client, meaning that one (or multiple) client(s) can attach to and detach from a central core -- much like the popular combination of screen and a text-based IRC client such as WeeChat, but graphical. In addition to this uniqe feature, we aim to bring a pleasurable, comfortable chatting experience to all major platforms (including Linux®, Windows®, and MacOS X® as well as Qtopia-based cell phones and PDAs), making communication with your peers not only convenient, but also ubiquitous available.
And the best of all: It's free - as in beer and as in speech, since we distribute Quassel under the GPL, and you are welcome to download and see for yourself!
Connect. Share. Collaborate.
