Looking at the sidebar on the Summary page there is this notice:
> Hey, this isn't a SourceForge project! Check out the SourceForge Open Source Mirror Directory for more

It also appears that the account the project page belongs to is "sf-editor1", and a lot of well known 
projects are listed on the user page: http://sourceforge.net/u/sf-editor1/
I'm also noticing VLC on that list, which abandoned SF as well if memory serves me right.

The box in the sidebar links to http://sourceforge.net/mirror/ and explains that they are mirroring popular 
open-source projects which are not already on SF or no longer maintained.
The last section claims they want to hear if "you don't want your project mirrored on our site" and points to 
the email address: communityteam sourceforge net
Then again, all they are saying is that they are willing to listen, not necessarily that they will do 
anything about it...


I wasn't already subscribed to this mailing-list, so bear with me if I messed up the addresses or missed some 
replies which were not yet shown on the archive page.
