Open Source FTP Component – An EBA First! | May 26th, 2006
[EBA] quietly open sourced EBA FTP Sync, a COM based file synchronization tool that more than a few people are using to perform tasks like automated backups. The neat thing about FTP Sync was always that we packaged it as a web tool… perform FTP synchronization from a web app.. neat idea….The tool is now under Lesser GPL,
and we will be accepting contributions back into the code if someone is
so-inclined. Otherwise, just download the package and go nuts.
- Go to the FTP Sync Wiki
- Go straight to the download
- See an integration video

I’m still not sure how this is working out for us. I’ve been studying other software companies like eZ Systems and MySQL to try and get a better handle on how we may be able to open source our AJAX and maintain profitability and growth. Mostly I just want Boris to buy more beer.
