dear developers I will only mention this fact so you can decide if you agree or not
taked from: http://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/notepad-new-site-notepad-plus-plus.org.html Since January 2010, SourceForge has complied with US law to deny site access from 5 countries (Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria). This action is totally absurd - not mentioning to that Notepad++ project is far from a part of US property (like all the hosted FOSS projects in SF), the fact that a FOSS hoster rejects the access from some population is not only a discrimination action but also a violation of fundamental FOSS principle. We refuse to apply US government's vision, so that's our first move: the new site under domain name NOTEPAD-PLUS-PLUS.ORG is hosted by tuxfamily.org in a neutral territory (France). Now replace Notepad++ with LyX or any other FOSS and you will get my point. Regards Alex Vergara Resident in Cuba
