yeah - it seems there are multiple issues involved with that. The
(modified) version of gforge we are running is simply not checking for
proper login status and anonymous posting rights in a number of code paths.
It seems that upstream fixed a lot of similiar issues already but
upgrading requires quite a lot of work :-(
I have already started a discussion about that on the gforge-admin list
and I hope we have a final solution to that sooner than later ...

Meanwhile I have backported some of the relevant locking upstream
changes to our version though I'm not totally convinced that this will
fix it fully.


regards

Stefan
