    Guava is a work of art created by the team that maintains it; what's the big deal if you can't add your own code to it? Merely a lost opportunity to advance your own vanity? Respec…

    Agree; this strikes me as a kind of anti-trust theater, with two companies that didn't have the foresight to build their own independent branding strategy (nextag) or actually inno…

    yes, you can actually design a site for your project and host it on google code. directing your users to the gc-provided default is your choice. the contents of your repositories a…

    my take on it is that gc is better at running long-lived projects or projects with non-developer users. github is great, but its emphasis is strictly on coding and dvcs. i've run s…
