I agree with Florent, the Trac ticket manager is invaluable for
communicating and for tracking issues, even if it not perfect. What is
then needed is a site to obtain latest updates, not just about the code
but about documentation, drafts, ideas, etc. The wiki is not adapted
because it easily becomes a navigation mess.

Setting up such a facility is a lot of job and a lot of responsibility,
so whomever takes that responsibility first should get the credit for
it. Anyone who has the ressources is welcome to step forward and provide
something better...

But if the goal is to get the lowest possible level of service (i.e.
svn) just for the sake of preserving neutrality, what's the point?
neutrality is the opposite of action.
