I beg to differ STRONGLY and before spreading that kind of BS could you at least list WHY google code hosting is not that good ? > I find it extremely slow sometimes and they've been having problems > with "nice" domains too (http://hippohx.googlecode.com instead of > http://code.google.com/p/hippohx/). > I don't get your point here ? you can just access your project with 2 different URL but where is the problem with that ? from http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/WhatsNew "Easier way to get to project home pages Shorter, simpler URLs look better and are easier to remember. When developers put their heart into a project they want it to make the best first impression, which is often in the form of a URL in an email or on another web page. We've always valued clean URLs for project home pages, and have used http://code.google.com/p/PROJECTNAME since we started offering project hosting. Now, projects can also be reached via an even cleaner URL: http://PROJECTNAME.googlecode.com. " and for the "slow" argument, I think there are better chances to blame your internet connection than the google servers. > While i was setting up one talk about SVN i found out this list of > companies offering SVN services: > > http://www.subversionary.org/hosting/hosting-services > don't tell me you put that URL so people go check there and click on the ads right ? > And i wanted to ask people on the list if they have worked without > problems with any of these or others, either commercial or not.

We now offer a source code review tool that is integrated with Google Code's project hosting. Reviewing code in your project is simple: browse any source file or diff, double click on a source line to add comments, then publish your comments along with a general comment and score for the revision. " more info here http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/CodeReviews you see this is a feature totally made for people working on open source project, no other services offer that kind of feature they explain their goals here http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/MakingHostingBetter "Mission Statement To support the open source community by providing a scalable, reliable, and fast collaborative development environment for open source software, docs, and standards that promotes best practices in open source software engineering. " no come again and tell me that "google code hosting is not that good" again ? If you're really into open source development there is TWO services to use 1) google code hosting http://code.google.com/hosting/ 2) ohloh http://www.ohloh.net/ they both have the right spirit about OSS zwetan _______________________________________________ osflash mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/osflash_osflash.org
