My feelings exactly. SF still looks like some cheap JIRA install, not a hacker-friendly user-facing site like GitHub.

I get the impression they're undermanned, underfunded and under the weight of their technical debt. You just can't do all the cool things GitHub can when you're supporting SVN (do they still do CVS too?).

They support cvs, svn, git, hg, and bzr. Very impressive.

Overall their website navigation seems to be heaps better. I know this rewrite has been a long time coming. I know it's also been done in python, and by some quite good developers - so I'm guessing they will progress faster now (assuming they all still have jobs).
