Well, today I found out that SourceForge, once the trusted provider for open source software, seized GIMP for Windows’ account, blocked developer Jernej Simončič’s account, and changed the byline to “sf-editor1”. Not to mention they’ve now bundled gimp with some stupid adware. They claim the account was abandoned, but they’ve pulled stuff like this before. So yeah. What do you think about this?
EDIT: “sf-editor1” has also claimed the following projects:
- Most of the Apache Foundation’s projects—including Allura, Derby, Directory Studio, the Apache HTTP server, - Hadoop, OpenOffice, Solr, and Subversion;
- The Mozilla Project’s Firefox, Thunderbird, and FireFTP;
- The Evolution and Open-Xchange mail clients;
- The Drupal and WordPress content management systems;
- The Eclipse, Aptana, Komodo, MonoDevelop, and NetBeans integrated development environments;
- The VLC, Audacious, Banshee.fm, Helix, and Tomahawk media players;
- The Reaver WPS Wi-Fi hacking tool;
