dear developers
I will only mention this fact so you can decide if you agree or not
taked from:
http://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/notepad-new-site-notepad-plus-plus.org.html
Since January 2010, SourceForge has complied with US law to deny
site access from 5 countries (Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and
Syria).
This action is totally absurd -- not mentioning to that Notepad++
project is far from a part of US property (like all the hosted
FOSS projects in SF), the fact that a FOSS hoster rejects the
access from some population is not only a discrimination action
but also a violation of fundamental FOSS principle.
We refuse to apply US government's vision, so that's our first
move: the new site under domain name NOTEPAD-PLUS-PLUS.ORG is
hosted by tuxfamily.org in a neutral territory (France).
Now replace Notepad++ with LyX or any other FOSS and you will get my
point.

This is not relevant to LyX, because we don't use sourceforge for any
official distribution.
