Mitch,

Out of curiosity, was there any problem with Gforge, or was it just the box
it was running on and political issues gaining control?

Thanks,

Mark

Actually we have been begging to have control that site for over a
year, and currently that site is stuck sharing a dual-xeon machine
with all the other mambo sites, yuck! I am grateful that I am no
longer the admin of that site...

The real issue here is that Miro owns the name, as well as the
domains. And that might have changed, after a 16-month legal debate,
but would have more or less terminated the usefulness of the project
while the fight raged on.

We decided it was more peaceful and productive to go somewhere and
take the steps to setup the foundation properly, with true
representation of the developers AND community.

Yes it is taking time, but this time it will be done right.  :-)
