Well that is not exactly true. We have been encouraging gborg projects
to move for at least a year.

What we haven't done is provided an easy means to do so.

But frankly after seeing, working on and with pgFoundry I don't think
pushing them there is a good choice either.

Documentation is very sparse, bugs are rampant and I don't want to even
consider
the possible security issues involved with it.

That being said, as an inclusive solution there really isn't anything else
out there :(

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
