I am quite surprised by this comparison: 

(a) sourcefourge is a tool that has nothing to do with the projects
themselves
(b) the projects are all independent while OpenStreetMap projects are all
build on a common core and are derivatives of this core - much more like
there is a linux for servers, mobile devices, embedded software etc. If the
core isn't any good then the derivatives are no good. 
(c) the projects on sourceforge do not have to share development tools,
infrastructure, funding, a license or communication. 
(d) if a project owner doesn't like sourceforge anymore he moves on.

Regards,
Oliver
