Background
[edit]TeamForge provides a front-end to a range of software development lifecycle services and integrates with a number of free software / open source software applications (such as PostgreSQL and Subversion).
Its predecessor, SourceForge, started as open source software, but a version of it (based on the v2.5 prototype code) was eventually relicensed under a proprietary software license as SourceForge Enterprise Edition, which was re-written in Java<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> and marketed for offshore outsourcing software development.<ref>Template:Cite press release</ref>
The original codebase of SourceForge (code-named "Alexandria")<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> was forked by the GNU Project as GNU Savannah; then, Savannah was also modified at CERN and released as Savane. SourceForge was also later forked as GForge by one of the SourceForge programmers, and then GForge was itself forked as FusionForge by three GForge developers.
Originally sold by VA Software, SourceForge Enterprise Edition was acquired by CollabNet on April 24, 2007.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> CollabNet subsequently integrated SourceForge Enterprise Edition with its own CollabNet Enterprise Edition and product, taking architectural and product elements from both systems, and re-launched the enhanced product as TeamForge in 2008.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Since 2007, TeamForge has continued to undergo development, adding in a series of application lifecycle management tools.<ref>Template:Cite press release</ref>
