[edit] Ad-free?

What does "add-free" mean?

ad-free means without ads (advertisement). 84.24.169.50 16:15, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] This page look should be improved

This page does not look good, if compared with another "comparison" pages of Wikipedia. Some descriptive text must be added before the big table, and the table look must be completely changed to match other "comparison" pages. Look at some examples:

Comparison_of_instant_messengers Comparison_of_Web_browsers Comparison_of_Media_players

I will probably do this later when I have some time, here is a site that has alot of the information borken down if someone wants to do it before me: http://www.ibiblio.org/fosphost/exhost.htm --Deemo 19:28, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

Compare groupware/communication facilities. This would be very useful for teams to collaborate. I am particularly looking for a site that can allow NNTP access to forums/mailing-lists, or better yet, complete groupware, like Kolab.

[edit] C*AN?

Places like CPAN, CTAN, CRAN, and whatever the java one is called - do we want to list those here? Ojw 17:37, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gna is listed twice.

Under "General" and "Specific Requirements". Gna requires its projects all be free software as defined by the FSF, so would that be allowable for "general"? They're both listed under slightly different names (Gna.org versus Gna!, one uses the https URL); that's a bit odd. -Matt 19:19, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Asynchrony.com

Does not seem to be offering hosting for software hosting projects, or I can't find it. Link spam? --CodeGeneratR 20:00, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Free software

Why isn't there a column for noting which hosting facilities are either run using proprietary software or host their services with entirely free software? --71.254.12.10 04:14, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Two new ones

Should Microsoft CodePlex and Google Hosting also be included here? -- Peter 10:17, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
