Subject: [Hampshire] Helping with open source software
Hi,

I am working on an open source bit of software.
Currently it is just me working on it.
I would like to get more people involved.
Do any of you have any ideas how?

The program is, I accept, fairly specialized.

For those interested, it is a tool to help reverse engineering.
It is called "libbeauty".
It takes a .o binary file as input, and produces a .c file that is
then compilable with gcc.
Once it is finished it will be far more useful than IDA Pro.
Intended uses:
1) Understand and analyze viruses more easily
2) Reduce the amount of binary blobs in Linux device drivers.
Idealistic and unobtainable goal:
1) Make binary only programs a thing of the past, with open source everywhere!

It is hosted here:

Kind Regards

James
