Yes, it is correct that I have unlimited client licences, although I've
got a limit of 10 users. It's easy to obtain from Perforce, and we'll
get as many users we need.
Your point about us having to get hosting outside of SourceForge
whichever revision control system we choose to use hold true, and is
indeed something very important. It's good that you structured the
conversation. :)
If I remember correctly, however, isn't it the case that haiku-os.org
(and beunited.org/osbos.net) already runs on a separate system, in
which case we probably could run our future revision control system
there?
