Hi!

I used Trac a few years ago (2006 or so) and liked it much. Anyway there is
a far better alternative called Redmine, which is heavyly inspired by Trac.
BTW: Did one of you ever used Mylyn for task management in Eclipse? There is
an Redmine-Connector for Eclipse.

The problem with those both is, that they are difficult to administrate (you
need webspace with python or ruby support, ...)

My suggestions for a new source code hosting / project managing provider:
Google Code or Github (which both have simular features to Trac/Redmine).

For instance, with Google Code Project members can easily view, vote and
comment on Source code checkings (see here:
http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/source/list). I was so amazed by this
feature, that I reimplemented it for our Redmine installation which is used
by my coworkers and me.

Tasks/Opportunities to keep in mind for a possible migration:

* comment and vote for source code checkins (google code)
* far easier ability to keep track on bug reports
* switch from subversion to a distributed scm (mercurial or git)
* possibility to upload releases and automatic builds

I don't like Sourceforge much, because it is IMO difficult to use, but we
should only migrate to a new platform if the majority of developers thinks
it makes sense. I really have a neutral opinion to the migration.

So: 0 for a migration and -1 for trac.

The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources
and provide services. The best practices for maximizing a physical server's
connectivity to a physical network are well understood - see how these
rules translate into the virtual world?
