I'm not opposed to trying Redmine, but I do like the simplicity of http://trac-hacks.org/ Each plugin gets one wiki page(more if they need) and one folder in the svn, really simple and straightforward. No real need for elaborate sites per plugin. I'm also unconcerned about SVN going away any time soon, or trac for that matter: both are well used/known. I would feel more comfortable if more than one QGIS web admin knows Redmine well, since we know trac is well understood by OSGeo Admins. QGIS has it's own VM on the OSGeo machines, so anything the PSC is willing to try is fair game. There's also the adhoc VM for more experimental stuff.
