In light of the recent activities of Dice Holdings trying to monetize the website it purchased in September 2012, Martin Brinkmann at gHacks reports

The admin of the popular NotePad++ text editor announced [June 15] that the project would leave SourceForge

[...] The project will use Github as the development hub for Notepad++ exclusively.

[...] tmux, nmap, [and] VLC for instance [are also trying] to get Sourceforge to remove [their] projects from the site

In the comments, Oxa June notes that Pale Moon is looking to move away.

In addition, Softpedia notes that WINE is migrating away.
