Great! I will get working on a prototype for moving the code then, and
report back here.

I think that would be best - I don't know of any decent alternatives, or
at least none much better than Redmine, so I don't think it's worth
bothering to change. GitHub's issue tracking is poor (no file
attachments, for example).

However, maybe we could do some improvements on the Redmine? Like
upgrading it... :)
