(Note: This is a personal reflection and nothing to do with BLFS):

I hate Sourceforge. Every single page takes an hour to load and
it contains nothing but a bunch of ads, and if you can make your
way through them, it is just plain hard to navigate, and slow as
hell. Did I mention I hate Sourceforge?

However, I suppose there's something to be said about a hosting
network that allows open source projects to breed (and grow) for
free. Though, did I mention, that I hate navigating those damn
pages because they take forever to load. You must have great 
patience to view Sourceforge pages.

Bottom line is: I hate Sourceforge. And so many multimedia apps
use it, so you won't see many updates to the BLFS Trac about
multimedia, because it means navigating these horrific spam/ad
pages.

LAME is an exception, as it is an important project."	task	closed	normal		BOOK	SVN	medium	fixed
