Other options? You can try using BitKeeper and not be dependent on a single point of failure such as sourceforge. And BitMover will host linuxbios project -- just one of the many advantages of bitkeeper is that you can still do commits and share work between developers even if the bitmover site is down. By the way, the new bitkeeper import tools do a really good job of breaking up the CVS repository into changesets. > > So has anyone else seen problems, or is it just me (I hope it is just me). > > ron > Talk to the Tcl/Tk group -- they complain often of SourceForge problems... If you want references for opensource projects using bitkeeper, try emailing the NTP, linuxppc, or MySQL developers. - Aaron (who doesn't work for bitmover....)
