would be ok for me :) Is assembla any better than sourceforge? I see you're suggestig to move the project to assembla, despite the visibility sourceforge would give. what makes assembla a winner over sf? 2009/6/22 Jason Spiro <[email protected]>

I think it'd be best to use something that:
1. we can find free online hosting for.
2. works with Assembla, since Vimpulse's bug tracking is on Assembla
already.
So this means svn, git, or Mercurial. Darcs is not supported.
3. a lot of people already know the basics of how to use.
4. is easy to learn, so that if new maintainers or co-maintainers step up, they can continue easily. Based on what I have read, svn and Mercurial are easy to learn,
but
Git is harder.
But I am not a maintainer. So it is 100% your choice what to use.
What do you think you will use?
P.S. I already know how to use svn and git, but I learned them a long time ago and don't remember how hard they are to learn.
I sent the above message before I saw that you created a SourceForge project. I see you picked svn. I think you made a good choice.
But now there are two bug trackers: one on Assembla and one on Sourceforge. I recommend Trac over the Sourceforge one; it's easier to use and more powerful. Do Sourceforge's admin tools let you close down all of the Sourceforge tracker's sections (Patches, Feature Requests, etc.)?
And there are three discussion venues: implementations-list, plus the Help and Open Discussion forum sections at Sourceforge. Do Sourceforge's admin tools let you close down all of the Sourceforge forum system's sections?
(If you make me [jasonspiro] a Sourceforge project admin, and ask me to close down those Sourceforge sections, I will do it for you.)
Best idea of all: Why not close down Sourceforge and use Assembla for both svn and Trac? And maybe for wiki hosting too. Using one service for hosting everything would be much less confusing for users than using Sourceforge for some services and Assembla for others.
