SourceForge will not suffice if we want to make IDE available to more general public. MetaCard's web site would be a perfect place since this basically will be continuation of MetaCard as it was to us, but I wonder whether Scott would let us use it and what plans he has for that site on the long term. A corner on Rev's site could suffice, but then we would probably have to go through Rev to post anything since it would be part of their corporate web site. I think having a mention and link there would be better for us.
