Not completely what you are asking, but I think that shortly after OSCON,
perl.org will be hosting a subversion repository of the Archive of Perl Changes
(APC). Robert Spier has said he is willing/able once some more harddrive gets
installed and he has a little time. This will, at least, but a fairly high
profile public repository, albeit read only.

I think the issue that the API is still in flux, and both client and server
upgrades are still required for each release, makes a large hosted environment
somewhat difficult. I would also love to see sf.net provide a subversion host,
since I am trying to kick off a project and would like to not use CVS if at all
possible. Technically, I have a copy of the APC already running for my own use,
so I could self-host any other project I wanted to. However, I haven't asked my
boss if it is OK to chew up the T1 hosting a public repository. ;~)
