According to a recent post on the ubuntu-uk.org planet by Alan Pope, Launchpad is aiming for an Open Source release within 12 months. I'm not sure if that's something worth waiting for, as 12 months is a long time.

As regards Launchpad. I run a couple of coding projects on it, but there are also things like the Ubuntu-UK marketing team which have a project on it. It's not really geared up for this though. The design of what OOo appear to need would require this functionality, and Launchpad would benefit from the addition too. At the moment I guess its a coding social network, uses OpenID too :) To integrate discussion/project management tools into it would suit a marketing effort much more - and would fulfil the functional requirements that the guys on this list have set (I think) ?
