"What VA Linux has now realised is that if SourceForge
can support a collaborative development effort that big, then it
can also host in-company development projects. And that is what
SourceForge 3.0 aims to provide.
This version of SourceForge runs, not surprisingly, on Linux
(however, the company has announced plans for other operating
systems, of which the first will be Sun Solaris). You might think
that it would also be run based on an open source database such as
MySQL but, fortunately for its sales potential, the company has
taken the pragmatic stance of rolling it out on Oracle (though 8i
rather than 9i) in the first instance.
The product has some nice features such as a source control
system, bug tracking, support for on-line discussion forums,
web-based mailing lists, extended search features and advanced
document management capabilities."
