If all you gain from going to sourceforge is a bug tracker, 
consider setting up Bugzilla.  This is the bug tracker used
by Netscape to track bugs in their web browser.  Red Hat 
uses it to track problems with their Linux distributions.  
The Gnome project is also in the process of switching to 
Bugzilla.  Details at http://www.mozilla.org/tools/bugs.

Setting it up here took about a day of wrangling with the 
mysql installation and initial permissions, etc.
