What is Infrastructure For Hosting Open Source Project (IFHOSP)?

Infrastructure For Hosting Open Source Project (IFHOSP) is the infrastructure that supports and co-ordinates the development of Open Source software projects on the Internet. It can be as simple as a mailing list or an ftp server to download the components of the project. Of course, most of IFHOSP have more tools than that. Examples of these sites are:

Infrastructure For Hosting Free Software Project
Bullet Free Software Foundation

Infrastructure For Hosting Open Source Project
Bullet mozilla.org
Bullet SourceForge
Bullet tux.org
Bullet The Visualization Toolkit

(In the context of this research, the term "Open Source" and "Free software" can be used interchangably though they are differences in ideological terms. So Infrastructure For Hosting Free Software Project and Infrastructure For Hosting Open Source Project are the same other than their ideological differences.)
