Whenever I've had to go to a sourceforge page to download software I always think, ugh I have to deal with this crap again? (UI, annoying redirects, can't find correct versions, etc) I honestly never understood why developers used the website for distributing binaries, I understand code hosting, but not the distribution (this was before they hijacked stuff). Hopefully, this will hit a chord with enough projects that they will altogether stop using sourceforge.
