Sandcastle hasn't been withdrawn; it's just been taken off CodePlex as it isn't an open source product.

The binaries are still available under the Ms-PL; I've mirrored them here: http://www.fluidscape.co.nz/?q=node/99

I would prefer to see SandCastle on CodePlex with the source code. I would probably only use the binaries, but I would like to see the source code.

Hey

I'd love to see Sandcastle on CodePlex.

For me, I'd much rather have a project that's alive and that (at least in theory) I can contribute to, rather than a project that's just given as a "sample". I'm sure that there's someone out there who values this tool enough to take it on and keep it alive.

What with NDoc having been superseded by Sandcastle around .Net 2.0 time, it seems strange that Sandcastle is now being withdrawn just after .Net 3.5...

What's the issue? Why is the source not published? Either way, I love it and will use it to create documentation.

I vote for option 1.

You might not get that much community help, but I believe you will get more community feedback.

Another important benefit, is that if just a couple of developers take a look at the code they might get inspired and build something great one day. It's simply additional knowledge!
