Re: SourceForge seems to add adware to software (windows installer)

Signing is definitely a good idea.

If you guys want to move away from sf, I'm willing to facilitate as needed. At one time we hosted everything at Virginia Tech (I think the primary v6 location might actually still be here - sf's IPv6 routing was frequently broken when I set this up).

Likewise, we can always separate the canonical gnuplot.info distribution location from wherever we manage code (part of the reason we shouldn't publicize the SourceForge links directly even when is hosted there). Github is clearly a good option for code repository; bitbucket is also quite good.

So far it sounds like there's not a lot of groundswell for moving, but let me know. Worth considering, imho.

Regards
Clark
