   The best well-known place is this site: http://smalltalk.gnu.org/project

As far as I can tell, this provides a place for keeping information _about_
the project, not actual storage for the code. Is this impression correct?

Yes. It does not provide git hosting, for example. To do so, I would have to abandon shared hosting which is dirt cheap (I payed 150$ for 5 years).

OTOH, it does provide issue tracking and publication of releases and---most important---a centralized database, kind of like Gems or CPAN. A combination of smalltalk.gnu.org and sites like gitorious or git-hub (or why not, bitbucket; I hate mercurial but other people prefer it) would do it.

I'll have to try it out anyways, as it looks like I actually wrote a useful
POS---piece of software, not a decrepit used car--- which seems to have
gained a vibrant user community of 1 (waves to Nico).

:-D
