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. https://plus.google.com/+gimp/posts/cxhB1PScFpe - GIMP http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2015/q2/194 - Nmap The beginning of the end for a former open source champion? So sad when short-term thinking takes over. -- Gilles R.
