Hi Diva, thanks for the advice. I thought the forge made sense as a tool for people looking for extensions to opensim, rather than for developers, since it keeps everything opensim related together, though I certainly don't mind having to use svn or anything. However, I don't want to burden the project either. I see some projects on there are just placeholders that link to github, so maybe I will do that.
