Git and GitHub has the largest mindshare among open source developers that I
am aware of (I come from the open source dev community, not academia). If
you want to be discovered or collaborate, I recommend that route.

I counter-recommend git. I don't like it. If you like the new 'distributed
version control' system style, I recommend Mercurial. code.google.com also
supports mercurial.

My own election simulator is also up on google code, also with subversion.

It's kinda hidden inside my project for multi-language (C/Java/perl)
election method implementation library.

I recommend you put it up on GitHub. Git handles versioning and source
control for you, and github is a good place for people who want to suggest
code changes to do it directly, so it's easy for you to just accept or
reject those suggestions. If you don't want to have to learn Git's
command-line interface, there are a few gui tools: you can use git-cola for
making checkins, and giggle or gitg for looking at the history of checkins.
