Really? I would prefer &#x27;code-sharing service&#x27; even if the point is to emphasise the sharing over the version control - makes it clear that we&#x27;re talking about the program code, not about distributing binaries.<p>The lay audience understands the &quot;code&quot;&#x2F;&quot;program&quot; distinction; to me, saying &quot;program-sharing service&quot; suggests somewhere the layman can download a program from (e.g. cnet) - Github sort of offers this now with releases, but that&#x27;s certainly not an intended or good mechanism to use for the lay downloader.
