I think that solves the wrong part of the problem.  It's trivial for
me to find places to host stuff.  The issue is having a place for
"official" releases that can be updated directly by the developers
making releases -- in particular, I would like to have release links
show up on http://openfabrics.org/downloads automatically.

One way to handle this would be to point the downloads page to a wiki
page and have developers edit it as the make releases.

I don't think WYSIWYG is particularly important.  For example
wikipedia uses the non-WYSIWYG mediawiki and they seem to do just
fine.  I'm not sure how well Trac will work for us, but those sorts of
feature (bug tracking integration, etc) are much more interesting to me.
