WP, honestly, I respect you and what you do, too much to play flame wars.
And I share your thoughts about keeping all the important add-ons in one place. Maybe I got too vocal about skalogryz's move ? The trouble is I do use git and github and delight in them both. I have used SVN (and even cvs) and see them all reasonable and usable in their own right. But when you compare SourceForge to GitHub, its a much bigger difference.
So, without arguing about differences between git and svn, could we look at an alternative way to manage CCR ?
I have my project, tomboy-ng under a (github) 'Tomboy' repository. It has, perhaps, 6 to 8 other individual projects. As far as I know, there is no limit.
We could have a repository, perhaps "FPCLaz Developers" that has individual projects, such as RichMemo under it. A small group of people (such as yourself) control the top level project, create "new projects" and authorize people to manage those individual projects. In the event of someone wandering away (or passing away), that person can be easily replaced, given willing hands are available.
Each of those individual projects is managed independently by their assigned manager, that manager (or managers) can add people to the individual project, control access, manage releases, all the usual stuff.
But the difference to a personal repository (such as skalogryz's) is that the "FPCLaz Developers" can step in if required, maybe to push a patch through while the normal manager is unavailable, maybe replace a manager who has lost interest and so on.
I don't believe this is possible under SourceForge but maybe I am wrong ?

And the thought of GetMem letting OPM go really worries me....
