What are the hesitations about hosting it ourselves? I've used the sourceforge system and basically only for SVN/Trac, didn't bother to turn on anything else. In the long run this would make the project more discoverable. Looking around at other options, few if any services offer SVN/Trac. Here's what a SF trac site looks like http://apps.sourceforge.net/trac/qgismetaedit/
Berlios, Tigris(Where SVN is) and Google Code all offer SVN but with their own Bug Tracking systems. We could also move to Git, Mercurial or Bazaar and use Github, Launchpad, or Berlios for any of those too. I would hesitate to use any but the largest hosts, since smaller ones may take the same route as our current provider. I also think regardless of who we pick we should consider url redirecting via a wikispot subdomain. Alex Philip Neustrom wrote: > I downloaded a copy of the svn and trac environment.
