[OT] Where to host an open source project? Sourceforge? Who offers Subversion already?

[F. GEIGER]

I'm considering going open source with a Python project of mine. Where
should I host the project best? I've often read people complaining about
Sourceforge, performance-wise at most. Are there alternatives?

I never could get acquainted with CVS. I like Suberversion, however, and am
using it now instead of SourceSafe (yep, I'm on Windows).

So the hoster should be able to offer access to a Subversion server.

I guess, most of you are on Sourceforge. So it cannot be that bad, right?
Are they known to plan to offer Subversion access?

Hmm, probably I had better asked, "where should I start my journey best?".

Any hint's welcome.

Many thanks and kind regards
Franz GEIGER

If subversion is a must-have for your project and you're looking for
a hosting service like sourceforge, I'll bet BerliOS is the best
choice.

You can also host your project infrastructure wherever you want and use
one of open SVN repositiories (see list at
http://subversion.tigris.org/propaganda.html). Anyway, personally I am
really happy with BerliOS. Good support, nice people, many site
features.

Reliable?

Reliable?

Enough for me. They had one major crash this spring, but since then
services work as expected.
