Yes that is correct. It syncs (copies) binaries from GH to SF, doesn't touch code.

So you're stealing binaries from GH and calling it your own? Sort of like what every download site already does. "Every day, SourceForge sees over a million visitors and serves 4.5 million software downloads." So everyday a user on average downloads 4.5 software packages? I highly doubt your numbers. Personally, I've downloaded perhaps 5 within the last year and I am an rabid consumer of OSS. I am not impressed with your performance.
The binaries in question aren't GH's or SF's, they're the project's, and since this synching is under the project's control, I don't see the problem.
