Tim Perdue on GForge & Building SourceForge

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the walk-down-memory-lane dept.

Steve Mallett writes "I've just posted an interview I did with Tim Perdue, former co-'head honcho' responsible for developing SourceForge. You'll either love it or hate the interview, but it's on his new project GForge, a fork of the previously open source code running SF, while he shares some insight in what seems like a miracle that SourceForge was built at all." Obviously Slashdot's parent runs SourceForge, so insert whatever mental disclaimer and conspiracy theory you want here.

  1. Server51 not a ripoff. by chrisd · · Score: 5, Insightful
    Hey, so as one of the people around during the time, it was not the majority view that Server51 was a ripoff of sf. I can only speak for myself of course, but I never felt that way. People have the smae good ideas all the time.
