Understood. I would hope the cost factor would somewhat mitigate this
position ;-)
Who makes the final call on this?

We should focus on capability and community value. You get a no cost,
turnkey, hosted system with admin, backup network that you
can configure the meet the needs of the Fedora community etc. That's
not
a bad deal in my book. Compare SourceForge Enterprise
against, say, Savannah (except there is not much of a comparison).
I'd
be happy to admin it for the community too :-)
Because of Fedora's goals of being once open, always open. Anything
Fedora should be built up from OpenSource software. This includes the
software that Red Hat users to put it together, there is something of a
push to open that software too. (note that I'm speaking as a person,
NOT RED HAT) Using proprietary software to facilitate the project is a
nonstarter IMHO.
