Who is the best person to ask VA about this?  The main question is whether
they can give us a server running SourceForge with a flexible and
easy-to-administer ACLS on it.

If this is not possible, then lets have projects use SourceForge for
everything except CVS and then set up a second CVS server with ACLS for
non-core applications.  If VA can give us the CVS server with ACLS then
that would be nice.  Otherwise lets put it at the RH colocation site and
look for a couple new admins from the GNOME community.
