Thanks Christof for this excellent rundown! I can't seem to find the externals from sourceforge on github though, is it the case that they are not mirrored, only pd itself?
cheerz, P
I'm not 100% sure about the actual state of the Pd Sourceforge repo but I'd dare say that almost all active Pd development by the *community* (i.e. issues and pull requests) happens on GitHub. The GitHub repo started as a mirror of the Sourceforge repo, but practically it might have turned into the opposite :-)
Regarding externals, there's no canonical location. For example, the IEM externals are actually hosted on git.iem.at, but there's a GitHub mirror: https://github.com/iem-projects.
There's been the idea for a central place for Pd externals (https://github.com/pd-externals/) but it didn't really take off (only 9 sub repos).
IIRC, IOhannes also put all externals from Pd extended on GitHub, but I forgot the name and can't find it... (@IOhannes where is it again?)
BTW, I had a look at the activity on the Pd Sourceforge repo and at least two people still seem to use it for their externals...

Hi list,
I am wondering if Pd and externals development happens via subversion or git? The page https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data says it is a "tracking puredata SourceForge git repository ". So am I correct to assume that development happens via git on sourceforge servers?
Thanks! P
