Now that DNOA may do Call Home Reporting I want to investigate the source to see exactly what is being transmitted to the DNOA servers.
The link on Source Forge only gives me the “Application Block” some samples, and a compiled DLL.
Where is the source? Am I just overlooking it?
The DotNetOpenAuth home page has a link directly to the source code. You can download it by clicking the Download button once you’re there.
Since you’ve expressed interested in downloading the source code for your specific version, once you’re on the source download page, look under download tags for your version and click that.
You also expressed concern about what is being reported. I’m glad you’re conscientious about this. I’m sorry that the link that describes reporting seems to be broken (it’s only showing the first few lines of the post for me). Here is a link that shows the entire post that explains reporting pretty well. If you’re concerned about anything you find, you can turn off part or all of reporting in its entirety. The steps to do that are near the top of the post.
Lastly, responding to your concern about so many downloads that omit the source or are scattered on several sites. Most users seem to be interested in the binary, samples, and documentation. The source is fairly large and so while it’s freely available it’s not included in the promoted downloads. I agree, DotNetOpenAuth’s content is fairly scattered across several sites. The poor (literally) reason for that is simply that no site provides everything that DotNetOpenAuth needs among its free services, and DotNetOpenAuth is largely an unfunded project, so it spreads its requirements across those sites willing to make those services available for free.
