There is zero excuse for what they did, and zero excuse for what they have been doing for the past years.
Once again reposting what I said in the other thread (which seems to have been modded off the frontpage, sad).
I'm one of the lead devs of LXQt and an LXDE sysadmin. We use Sourceforge for our mailing lists and some LXDE legacy stuff.
I'm absolutely sick of them. It's not the first time this has happened. I've been pushing for us to move off SF for a while and this is a good occasion to push for it harder.
I've sent an email [1] detailing plans to move. I am urging everyone who still has projects on Sourceforge to do the same.
If you have similar migration problems to solve as the ones I've highlighted in the email, please contact me directly and we can share the workload. My email is available on my Github profile [2].
