To host our entire web content in one place:
- FAQ (in form of a drupal book)
- tigris.org web content in form of static drupal pages.

I don't agree [1]. I think it's not a bandwidth problem. It's a
service/server availability problem. Go to monitor.berlios.de, select
"nagios" and check yourself. The http serveice on download.berlios.de had a
serious outage last week and was up since then. I think it was just
coincidence that we released 1.1.7 at the same time, because it didn't
happen when we released 1.1.5. www.berlios.de had the same problem during
the past days as well.
[1] I want to be able to create the download page automatically by just
changing a single variable and I can only do that when I know beforehand
what the filename will be. Changing the file type via web interface for one
or two msi files isn't that much work. A perfect solution would be a real
automated release procedure that only requires uploading files to a public
ftp space and running a script, but it looks like no open source hoster is
offering anything like this.

I asked whether it was possible to configure the svn permissions ourselves
and his reply was:
---SNIP---
Nope, the roles and permissions do not apply to the Subversion
repositories, because we host them separately (this is unique to
tigris.org, and is only because we need to be able to customize our
hooks, run latest svn server, etc).
---SNIP---
