Juanca, I'll assist you in getting things going on publishing JRCS on the site etc if you want. I'm clueless as to JRCS itself [okay, I bet it's an RCS implementation of some kind], but I can quite happily change the site to incorporate it for you and handle build/releases.
That being said, if your gut instinct is to pull the code out into an environment closer to home I can sympathise. I recently pulled a project off of sourceforge onto osjava.org because the SF building scheme is just so damn painful that I found myself never releasing code. Options I can think of: 1) Switch JRCS to the Apache incubator. I'm inclined to think this would be a bad plan. 2) Promote JRCS in Jakarta Commons for a period of time, then decide later on as to whether to migrate. 3) Migrate to personal server, or somewhere like codehaus/sourceforge. Or even tigris, who might have an interest. 4) JRCS to Apache Commons. Again, I would think this is a bad plan in your situation. There are some interesting legalities. When we donate code to Apache, we obviously are giving ownership of that code over to the ASF. Not a biggy under a BSD-like licence as we can just fork it. However, we're also giving over the copyright on the name, so possibly ASF own 'JRCS' as a name. If you decide to migrate away, we might just have to do a bit of quick figuring out of an exit strategy for code that is effectively under 'incubation'.
