Actually four people expressed an interest in installing Allura on Savannah, but all of them found it to be beyond their abilities and gave up. The problem was that they didn't find this out until the middle of July, by which time it was really too late to consider an alternative to Allura, any of which would doubtless have had problems of its own. The situation is that no one is currently working on the move to Savannah, and no one in our community seems willing and capable of doing so. I'd be very wary now of moving our production Issues DB to Savannah even if someone managed to complete the installation and migration, as we would be on our own as far as on-going maintenance was concerned, with very little confidence that we would be competent at doing that, given the experience so far. OTOH, using SourceForge seems to be essentially trouble-free.
