My thoughts about why _not_ SF/Savannah/Gforge are:

1. They're not really a consolidated codebase: they use a mixture of  
languages and have a large number of dependencies.
2. They quite literally take over a machine
3. The number of features is overwhelming, and almost unnecessary  
(certainly unelegant).

I agree, but what I'm suggesting is this: 1) we don't run our own  
hardware and 2) this might be something more of a pike community  
project rather than a caudium specific one; we'd just be one of the  
first big projects to use a Pike Forge.

agreed. my suggestion about converting it to a pike app was part  
jest, part encouragement for other non-caudium-core developers :)

I'd be okay with setting up redmine on a virtual server somewhere.
