Please, let's not put yet another project into a proprietary system that
many of us can't use because it's: 1) not available for our platform; 2)
not available for free because we have worked on other version control
systems; 3) got no guarantee that it will remain free.

There are plenty of other good distributed version control systems.
Arch and Darcs both come to mind.  Arch requires only a HTTP server (so
you could use SourceForge's more-reliable homepage for it) with scp
support, and Darcs requires a HTTP server with ssh and the darcs binary
installed somewhere.  Both let you read the repository with only a HTTP
client.

There's also Subversion, of course, but its server-side requirements are
a little more consuming.
