Damn!! Goodbye Google Code!

If you read this back in March this year, it ain't news.  Oh, by the way, google code is more of a developers space, where you can write and store /host your project.
Google code offers services similar to what Git-hub offers. Now get it? Hope so. Really.
Apologies if I can't explain this better. All I mean is, It's simply a great service from google, later under Alphabet(read more).
From this blog, it started back in 2006.
Now this good google service will be closed as from January 25th next year(2016)
As we speak, new projects can not be created. From their blog, below is what's up:

March 12, 2015   - New project creation disabled.
August 24, 2015  - The site goes read-only. You can still checkout/view project source, issues, and wikis.
January 25, 2016 - The project hosting service is closed. You will be able to download a tarball of project source, issues, and wikis. These tarballs will be available throughout the rest of 2016.

If you have your project on google code, you can easily move it. Below is a screenshot.

You'll get an email after you are done.
