Is SourceForge really open source? Guess I must have missed that news. Regardless, Gitlab would still be a better choice in terms of UX and is also open source.

- tobias2014 12y agoYes it is. http://sourceforge.net/create/ http://sourceforge.net/create/ (see also https://allura.apache.org/ https://allura.apache.org/)
- e12e 12y agoIt has been released as Apache Allura, Wikipedia has a nice overview: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Allura http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Allura Install docs: https://forge-allura.apache.org/docs/getting_started/installation.html https://forge-allura.apache.org/docs/getting_started/install... I agree that sourceforge.net as a service might not be my favourite, but Allura the forge-software seems pretty good. I think the only thing that comes close is the stack from Canonical -- but Allura seems more viable to self-host (and scale up when needed -- rather than "only a vm" or "full cluster"). It also seems less "overly opinionated", and still includes sensible defaults (contrast with getting up and running with Trac). YMMV, but it doesn't look half-bad. Right now I don't need anything more than what you can easily get with either a separate wiki+mercurial+mailing-list, "just" trac or fossil -- but for something in-between "too big to host internally" and "too complex for Trac to be easy" -- it looks rather interesting. I'd love to hear any war stories.
- shmerl 12y agoDo you know if Gitlab allows attachments in bugs and comments? It's one of the major deficiencies in Github.
