I'm curious what you feel the problems are with Google Groups in
particular; I've had my own issues with Yahoo so agreed that's sketchy.
When we went casting around for places to host the repmgr project at, we
went through a similar process to what cast adrift pgfoundry ones would
be facing here. The following set of resources has worked well for us:
Github: code, issue tracker
Google Groups: mailing list + archives
Release .tar.gz and documentation: Drupal site, hosted on one of our
servers
The Drupal site is the weakest link in that set, but discussion on this
thread has already started hopping on alternatives for that point. I've
been happy enough with Google Groups for small mailing lists though.
