Initially, the objective of this open source project is to create a site that will allow users to create applications based on the OpenSocial API v0.8 on a .NET platform. It also acts as a playground to test out other social frameworks and web technologies like Facebook, Google Friend Connect, Twitter and Windows Azure. The goal is to create a social platform that integrates these social frameworks as an engine for those interested in playing around with the social web.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Site features&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;ASP .NET 3.5&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;ASP .NET MVC&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;OpenSocial API 0.8&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;OpenSocial container&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;OpenSocial gadget support&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;photo uploading using swfUpload&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;support login via OpenID, Yahoo!ID (not working yet), Google Account, Google Friend Connect, Facebook Connect&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Windows Azure support&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;OpenSocial Conformance test&lt;/h1&gt;Results for the conformance tests are viewable &lt;a href="http://opensocial-compliance.appspot.com/#pesta@1246792894" class="externalLink"&gt;here&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Raya uses &lt;a href="http://pesta.googlecode.com" class="externalLink"&gt;pesta&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; which is a port of Java Shindig.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Background&lt;/h1&gt;Originally, Raya is a .NET port of Partuza developed by &lt;a href="http://www.chabotc.com/" class="externalLink"&gt;Chris Chabot&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Raya requires the use of &lt;a href="http://code.google.com/p/pesta" class="externalLink"&gt;pesta&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; which is a .NET port of the OpenSocial gadget server Shindig. Raya &amp;amp; pesta is both licensed under Apache Software License 2.0.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Raya is developed in C# on ASP .NET 3.5 using MVC and LINQ. More information may be found at &lt;a href="http://my6solutions.com" class="externalLink"&gt;my6solutions.com&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. The source code for pesta is available via SVN from &lt;a href="http://code.google.com/p/pesta" class="externalLink"&gt;googlecode&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The source code for Partuza which is developed in PHP is available &lt;a href="http://code.google.com/p/partuza/" class="externalLink"&gt;here&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The name raya originates from the Malay/Indonesian word which means celebrate, usually in the context of festivals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Future plans&lt;/h1&gt;Future plans include
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;more Facebook Connect and Google Friend Connect features&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;OpenSocial 0.9&lt;/li&gt;

Initially, the objective of this open source project is to create a site that will allow users to create applications based on the OpenSocial API v0.8 on a .NET platform. It also acts as a playground to test out other social frameworks and web technologies like Facebook, Google Friend Connect, Twitter and Windows Azure. The goal is to create a social platform that integrates these social frameworks as an engine for those interested in capitalising on the social web.&lt;br /&gt;

Initially, the objective of this open source project is to create a site that will allow users to create applications based on the OpenSocial API v0.8 on a .NET platform. It also acts as a playground to test out other social frameworks and web technologies like Facebook, Google Friend Connect, Twitter and Windows Azure. The goal is to create a social platform that integrates these social frameworks as an engine for those interested in capitalising on the social web.&lt;br /&gt;
