I plan to use github to host the official upstream source repository
and probably downloads as well (or, might just serve downloads directly
off of www.xorp.org...it's not exactly high volume).

I'll see if I can get admin rights to the xorp sourceforge page,
and at least update it a bit.  But, I think it would be confusing to have
downloads on multiple different sites, even if I somehow managed to
keep them all perfectly synch'd, so I'll have to think on that
some more.

Thanks,
Ben
