Google Code Project Hosting

August 3rd, 2006

Google now has a competing site for SourceForge – at least that’s what it sounds like to me. The new site is called Google Code – Project Hosting.

The new service from Google is a hosting environment called Project Hosting, that allows developers to upload and store any open-source project code they have in their arsenal. It also allows those interested, to search and download open source codes in Python, C++, Java, Audio, XML, CSharp, Graphics, and many other formats.

Learned about from Download Squad.

    I think that the open source community won’t warm up to this very quickly. I would not expect a mass migration from SourceForge anytime soon — especially by the larger, better-known projects.

    I’m sure you’re right!
