"It hurts us all the more that we are forced to discontinue the hosting for BerliOS by 31.12.2011." Is hosting for something like that really so much of an issue? I would have expected Frauenhofer to have plenty of serverspace around to keep it up for a little longer.

Its probably a situation where their contract with the facility/server space runs out on that date.

Or strike a deal with GitHub or SourceForge to transfer the projects to them (although that would only cover Developer and DocsWell).
