fine, but please keep setup a local SVN (there are many good version control 
packages, some might be better for you - don't read this as an endorsement of 
SVN) repository on your own system (doesn't need to be accessable by anyone 
but you), and back this up regularly.   

Maybe you already know this, but I find many people your age have not yet 
learned the hardway how important good version control with backups are.   
Even if your code isn't functional, it is often helpful to have the version 
control history for your own use, not to mention you have the ability to 
recover from a (drunken) fit of bad code should that happen to you.

KDE will do this for you, which is why we recommend an account, but there is 
no reason you can't do it yourself.  (or use sourceforge if you life)   The 
advantage of a public server is someone else might get interested before your 
code is useable and help your out.   The disadvantage is they might notice 
and help you out.
