14 I would strongly recommend using a public version management system if
15 you want to maintain an open source project (and even a non-open one).
16
17 I personally use Subversion (SVN) on Google Code; which, for my needs,
18 fits well, is very well documented it is very simple to use. Google Code
19 also has a very easy web interface, even if not as flexible as
20 Sourceforge (but I found working with SF a bit of a pain).

22 A lot of people praise a lot Git, so maybe you should check that out too
23 before deciding (I don't know what source code repositories support Git,
24 by the way).
25
26 Just stay away from CVS: it is old, clunky and it is currently being
27 phased out by most people.
