Re: [Libevent-users] Sunset of SourceForge.



Did this happen? http://libevent.org/ still links to sourceforge for "Bugs" and "Features". (And has both "sourceforge" and "github" links for "Git Repository".)

I just filed a bug on github. If that was the wrong place, please let me know so I can refile on sourceforge. If it was the right place, could someone update the webpage links?Â

I've accidentally been neglecting SF as of late - ÂI always forget to look at my spam folder, I will address these before the move.

The decision was due to many reasons. SourceForge lacks: security, no-advertisements, popups, Ânot to mention it's incredibly slow.Â

Github has become a standard for a reason: intuitive, Âeasy to use, and transparent about any problems that arise.

Tomorrow I will be migrating the current issues and pull requests Âfrom SourceForge over to Github using some hacked up scripts.

So..

Remember, remember, the 1st of September.
