Github can host a website for each project, using a gh-pages branch, see http://pages.github.com/ and https://help.github.com/articles/creating-project-pages-manually The website is then hosted on .github.com/. For example: http://zoggy.github.com/ocamlrss/ Then, using "git archive" command you can easily create an archive of your sources, copy it into the gh-pages branch and upload it (add+commit+push), making it available from your project website. -- Maxence
