Well, I have to say that I installed and played with sourceforge for awhile and it's, well, highly dedicated to being sourceforge. The various product links *all* point back to sourceforge.com relative addresses and there's no concept of "$PROJECTNAME" or "$PROJECTBASE" to customize the sourceforge software for someone else, like the FreeBSD project. It's very much an example of a "code straight to the goal and for one purpose" implementation and, unfortunately, thus completely unsuitable for our purposes without some major hackery. Maybe if we could find something else... - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
