The thing with Sourceforge.net is that almost no-one has anything good to
say about them these days, mostly because of apparent understaffing and lack
of response. See this:

Whereas the Debian people are amateurs, in the positive sense of the word. 
(Perhaps not *just* the positive sense of the word, but certainly at least
it.)
