We should also probably consider debranding Fedora hosted so it isn't as distasteful to people looking for a sourceforge alternative.
I didn't think we're in the business of being a sourceforge alternative nor do I think we want to be or have the resources to do that.
When Mike McGrath opened up Fedora Hosted, I think he specifically made that point -- but ISTR it was more in the context of, "we don't want to end up hosting a bunch of dead code." Sourceforge, AFAIK, allows a project to live on indefinitely, whereas we thresh through our hosted projects and, with prior notification to the maintainers, release projects that are dead or unmaintained:
