This would actually be a big advantage over the present situation.  CVS
repository surgery is (sadly) necessary sometimes, but it's something we
currently can't do without a lot of pain.

I can think of at least 3 projects we could host. :).  But even if
GForge was our panacea, it would still take a real commitment to run and
maintain.  I suspect the current crop of volunteers is already stretched
pretty far.  OTOH, if we could roll Zope into the mix, we'd have more
resources to draw from, maybe.
