It looks like someone saw SourceForge and thought "You know what would be great, if I could host my project on SourceForge, but have to deal with all of the admin myself too!"
If the infrastructure underneath is solid, it might be as easy as redoing the presentation layer to make it more reasonable... but I'd have to have more than a cursory glance to tell. It's just hard to want to do that when you've immediately got the taste of SourceForge in your mouth...
- lvillani 9y agoI think it's the underlying software that powers SourceForge itself. At least, that's what I gather from some pages on sourceforge.net displaying "Powered by Apache Allura" inside the footer.
- bsimpson 9y agoIt is literally SourceForge: "Allura began in October 2009 as an open-source reimplementation in Python of the developer tools for SourceForge (previously written in PHP), and was first announced in March 2011. Allura became the default platform for new projects on SourceForge in July 2011." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Allura#History https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Allura#History
