Another concern is sourceforge being attacked and a backdoored client uploaded. Most people don't check signatures and I seem to recall sourceforge having some vulnerabilities stemming from their "your own website on sourceforge" feature. It looks like Github takes security a little bit more seriously. Probably the best is to ask for free hosting from a reputable security conscious bitcoin enthusiast but that basically means Tux and he's already an SPOF in the coineverse.
