A year ago, I estimated SourceForge's costs at about $1.5-2.0 M/year. Most of that pays the salaries and overhead of the 12 or so full-time employees who run the site (maybe fewer now). A not insignificant chunk goes into colo and bandwidth. A teensy fraction pays for their servers. -- Bob Miller K<bob> kbobsoft software consulting http://kbobsoft.com [EMAIL PROTECTED]
