who even owns sourceforge now? it's like coming across an antique toy, who knows how many garage sales and antique stores it must have been living in over the decades - a quick google reminds me it's been at least owned by VA Software, Geeknet, Dice.com (!) and now apparently some company called BIZX. from a usability standpoint, including the release process, the mailing list, and everything else, the site was always of course awful, which wasn't so unreasonable in 2002 but as the years and owners went by it just got worse and worse. Along with the ads/malware, I took issue with it's silly practice that you could never delete a project from it, because that would somehow be denying the fact that you've promised your project is open source. Never mind this means if you wanted to move to some other platform that an ancient fossilized version of your code would stay on Sourceforge forever and confuse users who were unfortunate to find it there first.
