I had contact with the supportdesk of GitHub and they really want to
keep repositories at maximum size of 1 GB. I had a look at some other
hosting parties:
- gitorious, has a bandwidth limit of 500 MB/month [1], so I think
  that's not an option.
- SourceForge, has no limits [2], we should probably contact them before
  uploading the repository there.

I know SourceForge also has a Trac based bugtracker, this tracker looks
a lot like redmine (or the other way around). This is a tracker boucman
likes. Our release binaries are hosted at SourceForge, so we already use
some of their services.

Esr is looking at splitting of the resources and website branch of our
repository; there are branches not used for main development. It is not
expected that this excercise reduces the repository below the 1 GB
marker.

So I see two options:
- Split our repository in several parts to get below the 1 GB limit. The
  size should be small enough to not hit the 1 GB limit within the near
  future.
- Look at moving to SourceForge.

I prefer to keep our repository in one piece* so I'd rather look at
moving to SourceForge.


*) I don't mind to split resources and website branch.
