Yes I created an area for putting the API in but haven't got around to actually putting the files up yet... couldn't get TortoiseGit to work with it... need to look at that since I'm most familiar with that app now...

Oh, OK. I created a xerteonlinetoolkits repo there yesterday, with a view to moving the code from the svn to it at some point. I need to get a bit more familiar with how it works first, or I'll end up screwing it up.

A couple of people have uploaded the source... either to modify or just to keep a copy... one has added Google Analytics to index.php

There are XOTs already on GitHub

It builds a zip for you as well.

I think people expect code to be there now

You can also have organisations around a repo, which would make sense - to me - as that way no one account has the claim on the repo
