When we started Qi Hardware we also looked around and eventually found a software called 'Indefero' (GPL licensed): http://www.indefero.net/ You can host projects there, and also download the whole thing for installation on your own server. http://projects.ceondo.com/p/indefero/downloads So far we are quite happy with it http://projects.qi-hardware.com/ Other than that, I had good experience with github.com and code.google. One idea behind the Openmoko projects server was to keep all Openmoko- related projects 'nearby', although some people thought that concept is a bit strange when the whole Internet is built around URLs. However, it seems the idea of keeping the 'family' together kind of worked, so I think the first priority should be to get the OpenMokoProjects server back on track. The server side software used there is more or less dead, so a more radical approach would be to update to something newer like Indefero. Which would be a big task though and break everybody's URLs...
