Hi,
Here's an extract from our docs: "If you have a PostgreSQL-related
open source project that you would like to have hosted at PgFoundry,
please feel free to create a new project there."

Yeah, that needs updating. But I'm not sure what to update it to. I also
note that www.pgfoundry.org has no notice that we're planning to pull
the plug on it.
I've been thinking of migrating pldebugger out of pgfoundry, converting
it to git, and modernizing it by packaging as an extension. What should
I do? I can host the git repository at github or git.postgresql.org, but
what's the best place to get a website, a wiki, and a mailing list these
days? sourceforge?

If you need mailinglists, I think that's pretty much where you have to
go. github will give you everything except a mailinglist, and I
believe the same holds for bitbucket. I don't know of anybody other
than sourceforge that actually provide mailinglists.

Hmm, pldebugger is quite intimately related to pgAdmin, as that's the
GUI that uses the pldebugger API, so on second thought it's probably
best to just have all pldebugger-related discussions on the pgadmin
mailing list. In fact, there's currently no mailing list for pldebugger
anyway, so the volume isn't very high :-). Then github can provide
everything else.
Actually, I'm not sure if pldebugger needs a separate website either,
could just create a subpage on the pgadmin website.

I'll be moving it to git.postgresql.org in the not-to-distant future.

FWIW, I'm thinking of pushing pg_filedump to sourceforge. But that's
mostly because I already have a sourceforge account, not because it
needs a mailing list ...
