Hello, I have a potential project in my head for an Android custom ROM website which could be used to easily find any ROM for any device. I'm thinking about using sourceforge as the storage for all of these ROMs. I know your project size is unlimited, but I've also read that for huge projects I should contact you first. The size would only grow slowly as people added ROMs (there won't be a huge upfront size).

thanks

    Hello,

    For new projects it'd be good to stay under 30GB but that's not a hard limit.
    As your project grows and time passes, we will likely ask you to remove files that are not popular (not getting downloads). If files are getting downloaded a lot, then we are ok with more space being used.

    Our terms of use require that your project must be open source. REF (section 7): http://p.sf.net/sourceforge/terms

    So they should have README files or wiki pages or something that describe the build process for ROMs, or linking to the original project's source code.

    Sincerely,
    SourceForge Support
