Not sure what I'd point you too. A large part of the problem is that
the original installation of GForge was hacked about to a) run on
FreeBSD and b) add some features/bells 'n' whistles, but whoever did
it, didn't document it.

A) is not really an issue - we can move to Linux, but we will need a
proper migration plan for the user accounts of course.

B) is potentially more of an issue.

Guillaume Smet did perform an initial migration
(http://takara.postgresql.org/) on FreeBSD, which has stalled, largely
due to lack of spare time I think.
