The Linux-mips project is much older than sourceforge and looking at the history of hyped venture capital companys does not really give a good feeling about using sourceforge. Personally spoken i dont like sourceforge - For most cases its just too bloated and working for ISPs its not a problem to get some public accesible ftp/web/cvs space. > 4. Is MIPS Linux self-hosted?

The problem with some sourceforge trees and thesplit up information is that like you already experienced is a real problem for Linux-mips as there is no "source of the only wisdom". I dont like that tree-forking etc. Either build your stuff clean - ready for inclusion - or just drop the tree under the table as a big bad ugly hack.
