Hello, I encountered the same problem. Indeed, during the creation of a new project called 'glpp' (a shortcut for OpenGL PlusPlus), the registration process returns "That project name is not available.". This name seems to be free.at SourceForge, GoogleCode and on the www.
Is it possible to bypass this test and reuse name of deleted project (if its the case) ? Thanks, Nicolas PS: I already tried to register my project using its original name 'gle' (actually hosted by http://gna.org/projects/gle/), but this name is used by a project at sourceforge.
