Hello lurkers,

Arduino firmware C++ code is at the stage when it can be published
with acceptable level of embarrassment.

However, it's been almost to the day 10 years since I created last
Open Source project, and I'm sure things have changed since.

What is the right place to host an Arduino code base today?

Places I know about:

- SourceForge
- Github
- Google Code

Anything else? Any pros and cons for these three?

Hmm, I generally find SF a bit annoying, but don't have a great deal of
experience of the other two. Either would do I guess?

It seems that all the cool kids are at Github these days. I have
hosted a small project there, and found the collaborative features to
be really nice.

Github is what all the cool projects are using nowadays.

At Gibhub, there's great integration between the reporting and code management tools, and the infrastructure supports lots of different styles of open projects. Where I think it really shines is in really lightweight collaboration, where someone can start some work in an area on their own branch, so they don't get under anyone else's feet but, and this is the really useful bit, their work is still visible to interested others on the project. I think this helps people keep a bit more in sync, without imposing *any* management overhead :)

I'm really looking forward to the arduino/android combo, very excited to get things up and working over summer.

Cheers,
James

Yeah, I'd love source being on github too.
