Hi all
It looks like commit notifications is something sourceforge does not like:
Hi Michal,
I saw your blogpost [0] about this. I agree that having to provide an E-mail sending script to an external website, would potentially cause a lot of security breaches, or vehicles for sending spam. I like the E-mail notifications of the commits, it keeps me informed of new commits and what's being commited, and I'm sure other developers like this too. So I also would like to see it re-enabled one way or the other, be it by an external script, SF.net allowing sending E-mails from the gitserver again, or even hosting the repository on another server.
But I think that this last option should be a last resort. SF.net provides a lot of tools for managing a project, so having to set it up on our own, or transferring everything to another provider would take quite some work and effort.
