Looks like we'll eventually have to upgrade to the new SourceForge. Anyone know anything about the new one "Allura"?

Dear Pure Data Computer Music System project admin,
As one of our top projects, we want to be sure that you are aware of what's coming in the near future. As you are no doubt aware by now, SourceForge is upgrading our core development product from the "Classic" forge to a new product, code-named "Allura". Allura is itself Open Source, and is developed on SourceForge, at http://sf.net/p/allura/ Allura is also incubating at the Apache Software Foundation, to become an ASF project. (http://incubator.apache.org/projects/allura.html)
Early next year, we hope to be 100% migrated off of the classic platform. As a developer yourself, you understand that we want to retire the legacy code base, so that we can spend less time in maintenance, and more time moving forward.
We'd like for you to have the opportunity to upgrade on your own schedule, rather than ours. You can read about the upgrade process at https://sourceforge.net/p/upgrade/ and then press the 'Upgrade' button next to your project name.
In our surveys of projects that have upgraded, 97% of respondants tell us that the upgrade improved, or at least didn't change (12% said that), their developer experience.
Please don't hesitate to email me with any questions or comments you might have about the upgrade process.
