I want to get involved in open source projects written in Delphi. Until now I know about project JEDI and CNPack groups. Do you know other open source projects/communities? I would really appreciate if the answ开发者_如何学运维er comes from a member of that community.

1. Go to the SourceForge, search for Delphi, choose the project and ask coordinator to join to the project.
2. You can participate in Lazarus project. There is a lot of different directions, responsibilities, platforms, etc.
3. Go to the EMBT job forum, post there message, that you are available for open source project written in Delphi and wait for responses.
4. Start you own project :)

Not quite Delphi, but close enough that you might be interested:

Have a look at the FreePascal project ( http://www.freepascal.org/ ), and its associated Delphi-like IDE Lazarus ( http://lazarus.freepascal.org/ ).

It's not entirely 100% Delphi compatible, but it is very close in terms of being able to import and use Delphi source code.

In addition, there are stacks of open source applications written using Lazarus, as well as a bunch of IDE extensions.

Definitely worth a try if you're interested in Delphi.

GExperts (Homepage/Discussion) has lots of possibilities to get involved.

The TurboPower projects are all open source, and progress has been slow from lack of developers. Pretty much any position (code, documentation, web sites) is available, and there's a bunch that aren't being actively maintained if you want to try admining one. The downside is that since they haven't had many updates since they went open source the communities are fairly small.

I'm admin for Abbrevia (zip/tar/gz/cab archives). Roman Kassebaum takes care of Orpheus (visual controls) and OnGuard (creates demo apps). Sean Durkin is handling LockBox (encryption) and Async Pro (serial communications). It looks like Sebastian Zierer is updating XML Partner.

Arguably the most popular Delphi open source project is the Indy Project. http://www.indyproject.org/index.en.aspx
