Just sucks to have multiple roofs for one project.
My take on the situation (anyone feel free to correct me where I am mistaken):
The wiki (which I administer) is post-development documentation by a few of us users from which the developers [unfortunately] do not contribute to. We document what we learn and understand. The wiki/forum domain (asspsmtp.org), also hosts the griplist (griplist code is maintained by Kevin aka Geniusfreak).
The SF site has custodial access by at least 3 people (Geniusfreak is one I believe), although I don't know who is acting as its current official custodian. Some people can upload code, and some can alter the ASSP/SF homepage - of which there was a recent complain about the apparent boilerplate version description that did not get properly updated to coincide with a proper description of 1.3.3.10's "bug fix" release. The project, prior to Fritz's revitalization after it was abandoned by the original author because of personal issues, was a functioning SF project. Fritz doesn't want to contribute to it, and thats his prerogative as developer to develop how he feels fit to. But the people that continue to maintain the SF site do not publish the same versions at the same time as Fritz until they have had a longer established time line/milestone as being "stable". Plus, there are and have been so many updates and tweaks that occur to the code (some occurring without official version changes), that its too time consuming to even attempt to keep something as up-to-date, as what Fritz releases to his own private site.
So, there aren't really multiple roofs here. This project is more of a lean-to with multiple posts. Each post independently supporting the project in their own way to keep us protected from the storm. There have been multiple attempts to make it into a nice sheltered hut, but people just cant seem to cooperate. Its a shame really. But we do what we can.
