Apparently the last time I was on Codeplex I didn't even realize it, but as of February 28th, I've been a member of Codeplex for two great years.   Since then I've posted enough projects to be in the top 20 of the entire site!   I've had a few talks with Codeplex folks and really respect what they're doing.   Being able to host code and make it available to the world is an amazing thing.   I used Sourceforge a few years ago, but I never felt that it was a good enough fit for Windows projects.   I switched over to Codeplex and never looked back.   I'd love to see a few new features and a few enhancements, but overall it does a great job and lets me focus on writing code without thinking about it too much.

If you write code, consider making it available to others this way.   Offering zip files on your site is nice, but being able to host discussions, issues, recommended downloads, and documentation in one place makes this a pretty easy sell.   If whatever you wrote was useful to you, it will probably be useful to others as well.   Get your code out there and start contributing!
