Well, you might to read some comments I write on slashdot ;)

Seems like RMS influence at the FSF is very strong - they went to "fight" 
with sourceforge when there few problems came up.

Instead of talking to the guys at sourceforge and clearing up those issues - 
they went straight to linuxtoday and other places and started flaming 
sourceforge.

Yes, SF are not exactly "tzadikim" but instead of just flaming everyone 
there, stealing SF one revenue stream (the ads) - they went and created 
Savana.

Do they care that maintaining Sourceforge costs millions of dollars? (ask 
anyone here who hosts his servers at Akamai how much it costs) doesn't seems 
so...

Of course - the FSF could have sit down with the sourceforge guys and talk 
about few conditions relaxing and maybe suggesting them a mirror or a 
replicate service - but it's probably too much to ask...
