And then it is also possible to clone an SF git repo., host it on GitHub
and push it back to SF. (Should work fine with git remote)
So i would suggest to go with Fabio's wish to stay on SF and use Git.
This way all have what they want.
But Patrick is right. The most .Net projects have moved over the years
to other hosters.

Regarding people looking to SF as the trunk for NH, this can still
happen even if the source is hosted externally. SourceForge has a
feature where you can set the repository page to point to an external
site. This would allow NH to use a community-oriented host with
excellent features for managing contributions and still allow people
to find the latest trunk and downloads on the SF site.
Although I have also hosted a number of projects on SF myself, they
have fallen behind the times and I can't say they're a particularly
attractive option at present. When evaluating hosts for a different
project, I was definitely considering SF, but they were just too far
behind to be competitive.

the other matter is more than 5 years of people knowing SourceForge as the

but SF in not so cool as GitHub and I have part of white beard and hair.
Perhaps as ppl help us to improve NH we can help to improve
SourceForgehttp://sourceforge.net/apps/ideatorrent/sourceforge/ideatorrent/idea/...
perhaps... perhaps... perhaps...

One thing that people should be aware of is the list of sponsors as shown

<http://nhforge.org/>Moving the source repository is more than just
migrating the source code. There is the problem of re-integrating a build
server, including an automated unit test system into the new site.
here are probably other considerations that I, and others are also
forgetting. Just what is necessary to move to a new site, how much resource
will it take and are resources available to do the actual work?

You move from SVN to Git.
You never check the result of Hg in GoogleCode.

What does public host availability mean?
Moving away from googlecode was the single best thing FNH did for
contributions. Just because lots of people have google accounts doesn't
make
it a good choice.

If the point is about "more chance" we should use the DVCS with more
public host availability.
Compare bitbucket with GitHub shouldn't be so hard.
But what about clone/fork in the "evil" CodePlex
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/codeplex/archive/2010/03/05/codeplex-mercuria...
Probably we will see the similar features soon in GoogleCode.
Hopefully SourceForge will add clone/fork function to external hosts
for
Git and for Mercurial since SF give support to both.
The mayor part of NH users has a google account (all NH's forums in
various languages are GoogleGroup). If you have a google account you
have a
GoogleCode account.
IMO "more chance" mean more public host availability.

Using a DVCS gives you a more pleasant development experience, but
the
move to a community focused host makes your project more attractive
to
get involved with. GitHub's network graph, fork queue, pull request
system and the ability to watch people/projects are all valuable
features. As an existing github user I'm obviously biased, but at
least in my case there is more chance that NH will recieve a
submission from me at some point in the future if its hosted on
github
because
a) I will have more visibility of the work being done on NH
b) Committing to my fork and sending a pull request is very low
friction.

Since Castle and Fluent NHibernate are both on github, I propose
that
NH be moved to github as well. GIT has great mindshare and is
undoubtedly a very fast and capable system. Being on the same
system
as other closely related community projects will make it easier
for
the developers in the related projects to build off of each
other's
skills and code.
