I've added the code.google link on the wiki :)

In general people will host their projects at google, sourceforge and
other sites like these. The basic thing what djangoproject.com should
have is a project catalog where all django based projects can be added,
listed, searched etc.
Second thing - to get more developers use and contribute to django
they need to have a django supporting hosting. Developer that makes
Open Source software wont be interested in paying for such hosting (and
they aren't cheap). They would rather use free alternatives like
mentioned sites and for "home sites" - free or very cheap PHP
hosting :)

I run few FOSS sites and I have free hosting on a commercial LAMP
hosting site. I've mailed nearly all hosting companies from the Django
Friendly host list and non of them agreed to host my sites for 0$ (in
exchange for various help ;)Actually I've got only 3 responses, one of
them: bluehost.com "Looking at django website I'm seeing that they do
not reccomend running it in cgi mode which would be required on our
servers because we do not have mod_python installed nor will we install
it due to security issues."
Is a "we do not officially support django" a friendly hosting? Now
my plan to move my sited to Django is pointless and I'll have to hack
dokuwiki and punBB -_-
