Well I use gotorious, sf, github and bitbucket ..

For Doxygen I would recommend github, mainly because you can still use SVN
and github client works sweet on Windows...
(also merges can be made on the web interface)

Dont panic;  there are tools out there to make it backward compatible..
eg html5reset and other boilerplate project inject js and like to solve

well looking at htmlgen.cpp, it should be pretty straightforward to drop in
qtScript
and created a "nested dictionary" for the templating.
