well, article2001-10-20-01 talks mainly about licensing issues
sourceforge sux because:
- it is painfully slow to use from south africa. i mean
to the point of being completely UNusable.
- there are so many things you have to click on, simple
administration tasks can literally take hours.
- you cannot script anything - you HAVE to use the web
interface. this makes administering multiple projects
a complete nightmare.
- the interface has orders of magnitude more links than
you are ever going to use. (An ergonomic principle of
CGI is that you have only one link per URL.) learnig
to use sourceforge is a pain.
- you are not allowed to EVER delete anything you
mistakenly uploaded.
- you get ZERO support because there are 10000 other
users
- YOU CANNOT EVER DEREGESTER A SOURCEFORGE PROJECT.
It is important to look at the features really need:
a mailing list, a cvs server, a web+ftp site where we can
do automatic uploads.
But I think lets argue this off list and then report
back to lwip when we are finished flaming :-)
