CodePlex launched

Okay, so I’m two days behind the news, but CodePlex is Microsoft’s new code sharing site.  This is in the same vein as GotDotNet and SourceForge.  CodePlex, however, is actually built on top of Team Foundation Server which is pretty cool. 

Here’s a MS-Watch article on it.

In the article it says that they won’t attempt to port existing projects at the other code repositories to the new CodePlex site.  This will be interesting as new features and such are exposed through CodePlex (or maybe just having the performance up to snuff) and people complain that the other sites need the same features, etc.  Personally, I can handle changing my RSS feeds and favorites links over as long as the performance is better than GotDotNet.
