I'm not advocating this as a Caudium project. What I am proposing is  
PikeForge. We're discussing it here because I think we'd make a good  
first project to use it. I proposed redmine as it seems to do a lot  
of what I'd want a forge to do, cleanly and elegantly. It's also a  
relatively new project, so it's not a lot of other pieces of  
functionality cobbled together (which would theoretically minimize  
effort). If any of us were involved with administration of PikeForge,  
it would only be by coincidence.

I proposed EC2, because it takes almost all of the infrastructure  
maintenance work away. They do storage backup, and if the instance  
goes down, they'll automatically restart it. It's not free, but I  
tend to think the benefits outweigh the costs. That said, if there's  
a compelling reason to do it ourselves, like using Kazar, then I  
think we should consider it, at the very least.

Perhaps we can discuss things when I arrive in Europe.
