Hi Sahil,
I used SourceForge twice and it was amazing BUT not for just hosting
space.
It gives you a whole project management and collabration server functions,
it gives you CVS and forums and trackers (like bug tracker, changes tracker)
and role-based project members and hosting space which is proj_name.sf.net
and they offer also a build firm for C++ and linux projects (i didnt try
that).
Also they have a system which with it you can post some work for other
interested developers and someone will take the job he contacts you and you
agree then add him to the project memebers as developer and he can start
working immediatly with all given permissions
They offer alot of licensing modes (GPL, GNU, ..........) but in all cases i
think you have to share the source code for public download
so choosing them would save you from spending money on hosting free tools.
BTW: I'm not affiliated with SourceForge.net or any of thier partneners and
this post is my soul opinion.

Not sure if this was the right place to ask this, but of all the places I
know this place has the bestest exposure in both quality and quantity.
Many times I am hit with a "That'd be a cool to have utility". I sit and
start coding it, only to give it up later because I don't have my own
hosting space.
I know there's gotdotnet, but I've heard plenty of criticism about it.
Then there's sourceforge, which is .. umm .. I really don't know how good
or how bad, except I have downloaded quite a bit of stuff from
sourceforge.
If I want to broadcast my work and make it available for the world, what
is a good way to go about it??
Thank ye !! :P and sorry for the specifically non C# thing - except hey
what I do will probably be done in C# LOL.
Take care,
- Sahil Malik
