PortableApps.com Development Test Hosting

It has been in discussion recently that we find a single place to host most development tests. Steve and Simeon posted an excellent option, but for many apps, like Stellarium, Assault Cube, or others that are rather large, it won't work out well. I've waited for feedback, and I think that most would like to go with a Sourceforge project.

I have set up a Sourceforge project for PortableApps.com development tests, and if you would like to use it to host your development tests, just post and give me your Sourceforge username, and I can add you as a developer and a release technician. All I ask is that you keep the formatting consistent with the way it is currently set up.

Any comments are much appreciated, and I would like to know what thoughts others might have.

Why dont u make an Esnips account, it gives u 5 gigs of space, and u could just have someone who is a mod make a account and somehow email the login info and password to those who are interested.

I'm not so sure. I've never used it, so I don't know what it is like. I think although more technical, Sourceforge is more useful for what we want to do.

I'm using rab040ma's project. I wish that all the sf projects for portableapps are merged.

Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.

I've added a few others too.

I've added a few others too. If there's a way to merge with porterkm's site, we could talk about it.

Sure.

I'd certainly like to merge the projects into one, if at all possible. The only reasons I see going one over the other is that you have more apps already, and my URL is a little more obvious. Just making a few observations. Let me know what you think.
