SourceForge isn't the solution to everything though.  For very large
projects, the bug tracking might not scale well, however a recent change
was made that allows bulk updating of bug status.

In the case of one of the Open Source projects that I lead, Netrek, we
chose to adopt SourceForge for bug tracking but leave the CVS repository
in the same place it was before.  Insufficient reason to move, and the
service from the current place is better; 24x7 pager support.

So there is no reason to move _everything_.

It would be purely up to Marcus, in my humble opinion.

Perhaps a Marcus-local instance of SourceForge software?
