When announcements for new code releases used to happen on mailing lists and download links used to be tarballs, it was relevant to have a feed to notify you of new releases.&lt;p&gt;Now, new code releases happen at places like github, google code, and bitbucket, and the releases are almost immediately pushed upstream to package maintainers / repositories, blogs, twitter accounts, etc. Therefore, rather than a rebrand, I think what they really need to do is accept that their time is no longer here and go for a deadpool. Hard pill to swallow, perhaps, but probably the best medicine.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sanswork</author><text>I haven&apos;t thought of Freshmeat in probably 8 years.  Amazing to see that they are still around.  Does anyone here actually actively use them anymore?  If so how?  Back in the day I would use it to watch for new releases of different types of software to try out and experiment with.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>What&apos;s in a name?

Keeps me aware of new projects and up to date on the status of stuff that I use every day but might not otherwise know how its progressing.&lt;p&gt;Personally, I&apos;m kinda bummed about the the change of name.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sanswork</author><text>I haven&apos;t thought of Freshmeat in probably 8 years.
