Askeet is an open source demonstrative project developed using the Symfony 1.0 Framework. The project is free under the MIT license for download, adaptation, and commercial distribution. To illustrate the agile development of a web 2.0 application using Symfony, Askeet was initially developed over a 24-day tutorial series called the "Symfony advent calendar" in December 2005. The Askeet project was modeled after an online knowledge market where visitors can post a questions about any subject and answer any existing question. Questions and answers can be rated, so that the site displays the most interesting questions and the most useful answers first. The whole site is powered by AJAX. Since Askeet.com is a demo site for the framework, its database is reset nightly.
