"Reaching ten million members is a brilliant achievement and just demonstrates the work and commitment that Chris and the CodeProject team have to ensure the site doesn't go stale. Competition on the net for customers/consumers of a service is greater than ever and to keep interest going is a challenge," said Dave Auld, CodeProject member for over 10 years. "There is still a lot to do, but with the advent of the sister sites, the great competitions, and speculation of future functionality I am sure the community will just get stronger and bigger."
"CodeProject is extremely important to me, and has been a constant source of enjoyment since I first saw it," said Sacha Barber, UK-based Software Developer. "I love the people that run it (truly great guys), and I have become personal friends with one or three of the fellow authors which I think is great. It is that sort of community that CodeProject has given me."
In honour of the celebrations, CodeProject gave away developer dream prize packs valued at over $10,000 containing software tools and products donated by over 25 technology organizations. Prizes were donated by 1105 Media, Aspose, Aurigma, CloudBees, ComponentOne, DBI, Gambrell Software, Gnostic Information Technologies, Gudu Software, Infratulation, Intersoft Solutions, jqChart, Klocwork, LearntoProgram, Liquid Technologies, LogicNP Software, Manning, Novalys, Red Gate, SoftFluent, Soraco, and TestingWhiz. Novalys is also giving away a special version of Visual Guard to CodeProject members for free, designed in honour of the Ten Million Member Celebration.
