Who hasn't missed sourceforge ? or ... freshmeat while we'are at it :)

I am sticking to sourceforge still. I never understood what people made
leave it.

For many people, this is why sourceforge died:

Yeah. The Wikipedia page mentions mentions 2015, however DICE (the new owners
of SourceForge at the time) introduced it a few years earlier.

This is one of the earlier calls to action about the problem:

SourceForge were *really* pissed at me for writing that.  As in, whinge
to my employer about me, threaten to get law people involved, etc.

They didn't get very far thankfully. :)

Anyway, we seem to be fairly off topic now...
