[RndTbl] SourceForge pulling a CNet download.com boneheaded move?

[Gilles Detillieux]

Have any of you heard about SourceForge's recent takeover/highjacking of 
GIMP for Windows and Nmap?  This was a bit of a shocker to me.  It seems 
to be a way of forcing the inclusion of adware in downloads, for popular 
projects that don't agree to it.

The beginning of the end for a former open source champion?  So sad when 
short-term thinking takes over.
