No :). I liken it to the idea that it is a chore with little perceived
benefit and thus you have remind your son 6 times within 10 minutes to
actually take out the garbage.

The consideration of worth on this topic is based solely on the idea
that nobody want to do it and not based on any concrete evidence that
it wouldn't be helpful in the advocacy of our project.

There is no denying that SourceForge is a huge repository of Free
Software nor is there any denying that it is the largest and likely the
most searched.

That in itself is a benefit but again, it comes back to if someone is
going to commit to actually doing the work to prove one way or the
other the validity of using Sourceforge as a entry point to new users.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
