Yes, this is true, but being public, everybody can copy the whole tree 
and install it on another server with no troubles, it is not proprietary 
database or closed system nobody else have.
What it gives though, more control, full access to the system, server, 
running demo, customized website and etc.

As for keeping it running, maintaining open-source project is already 
overhead, 10-30 minutes do not make any difference.

I am not convincing for the switch but i personally do not like SF for 
being slow, not running the tools i need (naviserver for example, svn up 
until now) and bloated user interface, it is universal but it has too 
many ads and other not useful(for me) information, so  i started slowly 
loosing my patience for SF a long time now.

But i would prefer naviserver be hosted on some third party system with 
full access and be able to run it as web server. We do not need a lot of 
things: simple web pages, tracker/forum, mailing list, wiki.
