Obviously whatever everyone decides. Maybe for the
main development something like savannah would make
more sense. The reason I like sourceforge it that (at
least up til now) it has always been a good reliable
place to have code hosted.
In any case, even if we don't do the main development
there, it seems a shame to waste the site. Maybe it
could at least be a mirror for releases and the
website? According to it's web logs it gets a small
number of hits every few days, probably from people
looking for the maxima stuff. As of now there is
nothing there. Maybe we could say that development is
taking place elsewhere, and only stable releases are
put on the sourceforge site?
