Subject: Re: Where to host the Ruby Project Source Code

Hi Esen,

As I suggested in the tweet, I am pro-Github.

Don't get me wrong, SF.net is an excellent platform, however, in the 
ruby community, Github is a *much* more popular collaborative platform.

During the SF.net days, I rarely submit patches. But ever since I 
started using Github, I've been contributing to numerous projects 
including Rails. It is just so easy to fork and contribute to projects:

It is safe to assume that by open sourcing the code on Github, you would 
attract more attention, and developers are more likely to fork the 
project and contribute.

I don't know about the others, but I personally only use SF.net to 
download packaged files... (guilty as charged, I know.)

Just my 2 cents. :-)

Cheers,
Fred
