Source forge tracking system for POC--Info required

[Pankaj Jaiswal]

My impression is that we will use sourceforge primarily for the bug tracking 
system and doing a mirror of the ontology cvs from Gorgonzola (should be done in 
an automated way). Simultaneously, all the ontology files are maintained on 
primary cvs on Gorgonzola. The developers should work on these files only.
