Hi David,
this is a fantastic idea, and one which I think many developers (and most end-users) will appreciate. Do you have any "best practices" to start with? For example, from the infrastructure point of view, my project http://www.nitrc.org/projects/pestica/ has become much more accessible from just a few days on the NITRC, with nice layout, mediawiki, download links and so on. However, I haven't done much in the way of making my software better for the end-user. A large part is limited time, but another large part is lack of knowledge about the use of project management tools available in NITRC. Do you plan on offering a tutorial (or are you aware of one that exists already) relating to managing a project through NITRC?
