Hmm I am not really happy about it. The concentration of Free
Software Projects on SourceForge is a little bit dangerous.
See  http://lwn.net/2000/0210/devel.phtml for some considerations.

Though SourceForge is a nice service and a good idea, I think that
there should be more decentralism and diversity.

But again that is not really a Python specific subject.
This post just shows that I regard python as an important free
software project. :-)
