SourceForge is a free software repository.
It's really old, ad supported, adware supported. And yet, it is still alive.
It hosts code migrated from BerliOS[1] which shut down.
Shutdown?
2015: Removal of FRS Area
Hello, You have been identified as having saved files in you user FRS profile area (/home/pfs/<username>. We are planning on removing this area for user accounts on March 17th 2015. We wanted to give you the opportunity to move your data to a new location before we remove the data. Here is a link that should help you with moving your data: https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/SFTP/ If you need any help please contact us. Thanks SourceForge.net Support sfnet_ops@slashdotmedia.com https://sourceforge.net/support
2015: Admins hijacking projects to add more adware

Site Structure
- 444,202 project URLs found: https://github.com/marcroberts/archiveteam-sourceforge-lister/blob/master/projects-sorted.txt
Download files can be found on public ftp mirrors, priority on the rest of the site then download files last? e.g. http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.sourceforge.net/
CVS/svn/git/hg/bzr repositories should be a priority; many projects do not have their source code on the ftp mirrors.
The main API is documented here: http://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/Allura%20API/ and allows unauthenticated access to most services. It also can indicate what revision control system is used.
Appropriate tools, (such as git clone -m and svnrdump) can be used to backup, but SF suggests using rsync regardless of the actual revision control system used.
- Some projects have subdomain sites. Ex: http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net/ Many can be listed by using the project API as an "external_homepage".
Archiving
On June 17, 2015, ArchiveTeam started two simultaneous grabbing process: one for web-based content and binaries, and one for rsync-able source code repositories. Shortly afterwards, someone claiming to be a SourceForge staff member, told us to stop and first contact their representative.
