Every time I see a link to source forge, it makes me wonder about what will kill github.
Is it technical? Will a better code management tool show up? Technically superior, or just less user hostile?
Or is it a business issue? Will Microsoft bollocks it up?
I cannot believe that git and github are the pinnacle. I really hope I see at least what comes next, and hopefully the thing after, in my professional lifetime.
