Github has releases since July, 2013.

So maybe it's not as bad as it used to be.

I'm relatively new (< 1 yr.) to github so I don't know all it's
features or workflow yet.  However, I left sourceforge years ago
because it's basically a popup spammy ghetto now.

I switched to codeplex.  However, codeplex is feeling less innovative
than it was when I switched, so now I'm probably going to switch things
to github to encourage more contributions.
