Microsoft is finally pulling the plug on CodePlex. I've hosted various projects there over the years and have just finished migrating everything over to GitHub which looks like it just might have a future:

• blogger2blogml - Migrate blogger format blogs to BlogML.
• orb - Controller library for Ambient Orb devices.
• shapefile - parse the ESRI Shapefile format.
• stackhash - full client for downloading and debugging Windows Error Reporting (WER) crash dumps.

Mark Jackson, my co-founder at Cucku, is blogging re-mastered debugging tips from StackHash. StackHash is now an open source project and all of the great content from the original site has been taken offline. This new project is a great resource for debugging on the Windows platform, especially post-mortem crash dump analysis. If that’s your thing do yourself a favor and subscribe to Mark’s blog.
