Then I will give my own opinion:

- I checked launchpad.net, I don't like it because
1) it forces the use of bazaar instead of subversion
2) it focus on forum and not mailing-list. I just don't have the time to 
navigate in forums

- What I liked in other lists that you might consider:
3) lwip list http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/lwip/ has an 
interesting feature: all modifications to it's bug-tracking is echoed to 
the list, this makes it much easier to follow up on discussions there
4) most project hosting don't provide a wiki, but this can be hosted at 
wikia, have a look: http://lwip.wikia.com
5) a wiki with WYSIWYG would be *much* better. it reduces time to get 
things right, so more can be written... (I have installed one for myself 
with MediaWiki and FCKeditor extention, it is great, PHP5/MySQL only!)

- and an important aspect:
6) he provider has to be reliable for many years into the future. I have 
seen *lots* of interesting sites just disapear
7) DO WE REALLY HAVE TO MOVE? It will take a lot of work, who has that time?
