Editing SourceForge

'''SourceForge'''.net is a central registry of [[open source]] software project efforts.  It has been criticized for terrible [[usability]], [[require login]]s and [[email verification]] even just to [[report bug|report an easily reproducible bug]], and other absolute failures as a feedback mechanism.

[[Tikiwiki]] relies on it exclusively, which is a major drawback of that [[wiki code]].  [[Mediawiki]], [[GetWiki]], [[MoinMoin]] and [[Seedwiki]] all have some alternative channels that can be used by normal humans to report bugs.

[[ConsuML]] has been set up as a project on SourceForge but predictably nothing has happened, helping justify SF's nickname '''SourceForget''':  anything that is only managed there is soon forgotten in its incomprehensible user interface and a haze of out of date projects and geek talk.

The [[SocialForge]] project may prove to be much more reliable.  At the least, actual end users may participate, and may be able to use the interface of it.
