Hi,
I'm about to release my first Free and Open Source Software package under the BSD license, and I was wondering which hosting facilities people have gone with/would go with and why. I was originally thinking of going with sourceforge, but I read the TAC of the site and was not sure what their perpetual license meant. So I started looking at alternatives. The ones that google suggests via autocomplete when you type in "sourceforge vs " are:
I guess self-hosting is a possibility too, though that seems like useless reinventing of the wheel.
I have written the code for (Open)Solaris compatibility, so bear in mind that it's not just FreeBSD users who may be using it.
I realize that wikipedia has a comparison page, but I'm curious as to get some opinion from people here before I decide which to choose. Thoughts? Feel free to suggest any not listed.

- bitbucket
- google code
- codeplex (not using it out of principle, it's Microsoft)
- gitorious
- assembla
