I never used google code. It looks nice, but I feel more comfortable
with sf.net:

1) larger global user base
2) shell access: e.g. hosting the update site is easier with shell
   access 
3) free choice of homepage (static, wiki, etc: php and mysql
   enabled) (btw I'd like to rework that wiki soon ...)
4) administration fairly easy. (I could not find a document about
   features of google code ...)

But I think this is not a technical issue: The code is free and
everyone can do with it what he likes.

For me the most important thing is to keep people together. So I would
suggest to stay here and reimport your work, rather than move to a new
place, a new name etc. We have this list (40 members),
http://vimplugin.org, a http://freshmeat.net entry etc. So I guess
'vimplugin' has quite a bit of infrastructure and popularity.

For me it seems also logical to stay here, because your work builds up
on existing code. But that impression may be too subjective :-)

Sebastian.

PS I looked into the code last night. It works like a charm :-) What
new features are there?
