If the point is about "more chance" we should use the DVCS with more public host availability. Compare bitbucket with GitHub shouldn't be so hard.
But what about clone/fork in the "evil" CodePlex http://blogs.msdn.com/b/codeplex/archive/2010/03/05/codeplex-mercurial-support-for-forks.aspx Probably we will see the similar features soon in GoogleCode. Hopefully SourceForge will add clone/fork function to external hosts for Git and for Mercurial since SF give support to both. The mayor part of NH users has a google account (all NH's forums in various languages are GoogleGroup). If you have a google account you have a GoogleCode account. IMO "more chance" mean more public host availability.
