Calling .Net developers!

MySpace to contribute their .Net implementation of OpenSocial to open source!

“Myspace has always been committed to open standards and the open Internet. The Myspace Developer Platform team is taking the next logical step and will be open sourcing our internally developed Myspace OpenSocial Gadget container. Now there will be a high quality and highly scalable .Net implementation of an OpenSocial Gadget container available to the community. This will provide an excellent complement to the Java and PHP based containers developed by the Shindig project as we continue to support OpenSocial as one of the foundational building blocks of the open web. ”
