Google is bound by US law to block users from Iran, Syria, Cuba, etc[1] 
(like SF, but I've read that SF has circumvented this (?))  I'd urge 
against using Google to host free software projects. So, once again, I'd 
recommend using own hosting or maybe Savannah (I don't personally have 
experience with Savannah, so if anybody disagrees, please speak up). 
Wikipedia has a comparison article on code hosting[2].
