[nvda] Re: NVDA on SourceForge

Hi John,
I don't particularly care whether SourceForge or something else is used. The exposure thing is a valid argument, but doesn't hold as much weight as some might think, particularly for a project like this which has a limited audience and which will thus primarily attract new users through word of mouth. However, NVDA development depends on a Subversion repository and the current solution is not reliable. Hosting Subversion servers on local home servers is a bit unreliable at times also.

I tried putting liblouis on SourceForge. the process was long and involved, and then it didn't work. I wouldn't have bothered, because getting anything from SourceForge requires jumping through a lot of hoops. My own choice was to just keep it on my own site www.jjb-software.com . However, I was told that small projects should be on sourceForge to give them greater visibility. I'm unconvinced.
