I'm not sure that I understood the point.  The infrastructure team does all
of those things for new projects, too.  We have an excellent CVS process,
and are starting a phased migration to Subversion, which is even better and
easier.

I agree with you, that the infrastructure team does a good job in establishing these services. The problem is not so far to get these services up and running but to find out

- who does these things
- where is it running (links for the docs, etc.)
- what is required to access them (passwords and all that kind of things)
- much more bureaucracy (I accept the requirement for Apache, in contrast
  to sf.net, but fact is: There is.)

On sf.net, you are your projects almighty admin. Features are enabled by
just clicking on a button and so. This is not that I recommend sf.net. It
is simply that I compare what's easier and less work.
