We disabled our SourceForge site 2014-08-30, and it used to be taken down / not show up in search results. Looks like it's back up now? nextgens - does SourceForge give any indication why they appear to have reactivated Freenet's account? There's a link on the page "As of 2015-06-14, this project may now be found at https://freenetproject.org."; > I think we should take this as a strong cue to at least release 0.7.6 > the next few months, and then increment the version number *at least* > whenever there are changes which can cause older versions to no longer > connect. I was worried about https://github.com/freenet/fred/blob/next/src/freenet/node/Version.java#L41 but it looks like we can change 0.7.5 to 0.7.6. For correctness we should change the build number to 1 for the new version, but that wouldn't be practical because the update key edition is tied to the build number. >> http://www.howtogeek.com/218764/warning-don%E2%80%99t-download-software-from-sourceforge-if-you-can-help-it/ > > guh… desperately grabbing for money… ☹ > >> - So when deleting the account, please first check whether there is some >> kind >> of opt-out thing to tell them "do not take control over the account". We already tried deleting the account. My current understanding is they have undeleted it. > I think that’s infeasible: We’re a free software project.

If nothing else they're being abusive if they don't maintain the page and yet don't allow us to take it down. They're using the project's name against our wishes to get ad revenue.
