Ladies and Gents,

Don't know if you've seen or are aware of this, but SF is denying access.

"This means users residing in countries on the United States Office of Foreign
Assets Control (OFAC) sanction list, including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan,
and Syria, may not post content to, or access content available through,
SourceForge.net. Last week, SourceForge.net began automatic blocking of
certain IP addresses to enforce those conditions of use." SF.net (below)

Cheers,
