Well, he... there is the "Suggestion Box" forum, but it is filled with spam and no one is answering. But hey, something is going on, about a year ago SourceForge was orange, then it turned black, now it is blue. This is crazy. The real problem is of course not the color, but the interface: - Useless forum thread view where you can only see one answer at a time - Search box which you cannot find etc etc SourceForge R.I.P.

Using a paid service is not always an option. This article does help. However, not using HTML (for marketing purpose) is not an option as most recipients would not give importance to text only messages. Yahoo's bulk mail filters are strange. I sent a mail to myself from my yahoo account and it promptly ended up in the bulk folder. Yahoo does have a process (fill out an online form) to help if your mails end up in Yahoo spam forlder. Not sure how helpful that is though. Thanks for the post. Using a paid service is not always an option. This article does help.

And the search engine on the mailing list pages searches all of sourceforge. How incredibly useful!

They added those silly javascript menus that really make it more difficult to navigate. The sourceforge interface really sucks now, it’s harder to find info on each project site.

Hopefully I've accomplished this. I don't know anything about the individuals that you are posting about. I have no desire to defame anyone. I also don't appreciate the profanity in the comments. I believed this post has run its course, and so I am closing the comments 2 and a half years after the fact.
