“Using RedHat’s business model and a portal style approach to
distribution, SourceForge hopes to propel itself above its
competitors in the next year for open source software distribution
and development.”
“John Hall, Vice President of Support and Professional Services,
states “In getting started, we discovered that there’s a real need
for a service like SourceForge…most open source projects just
don’t have reliable ways to find their software releases.”
“Armed with a discussion forum, download area, and development
projects, SourceForge has everything it needs to become a major
player in the open source movement.”
