Whether or not you like Sourceforge is your personal viewpoint. Millions do like it and come to it for Open source software.
In the Open source world this amount of misleading would be considered negligence at best.
Which is why I don't like sourceforge. It's difficult to use and manage, and it's very easy to make a mistake or oversight like this. We've had releases delayed in part because of stuff like this before. Also, I suspect we'd have had most of our 28,333+ downloads even without sourceforge....
If you do not like Sourceforge or do not want to use it, it is your prerogative. However, if you continue to use it as you still are, you should not mislead the public. Also remember, that people are visiting Euphoria at Sourceforge directly from search within Sourceforge or search via Google. In the retail world, your actions are tantamount to false advertising.
The reality though is that you do recognize the value of Sourceforge presence and therefore, you should change your advertising to reflect the current product and its characteristics, AND MAINTAIN YOUR ADVERTS PROPERLY.
