They're still around and active, just not in the spotlight as much. They're mostly used as a distributing system now. They're worth consideration if your projects host and distribute large binary files in addition to source archives.

That's exactly why we use SourceForge for Ubertooth, it gives us a good way to host released versions and some binary firmware images.

I mirror Ubertooth to Github because I was tired of having to answer the question "what's the Github URL?" from people wishing to browse the code.
