Hello Andreas,

I think the question -- SF yes or no? -- is not the only question. There
are different interests that are not soved with a YES of NO to this
question. To find good solutions it needs creativity as well as communiction.

Jan-Hendric experiments with replication. That is a step towards an
solution for one question: How to host on SF and get the best of Trac at
the same time? This efforts need integration into the TYPO3 community as
well as the offer of Jive to give another channel to the news. But without
integration the jungle of the namespace is growing until nobody finds a way
any more.

That is why I suppose to look for solution in common with all that are
involeved in server matters.

Elmar
