I don't know about bug databases and mailing archives, but getting your CVS out of sourceforge (or just backing it up) is quite easy... I've never had occasion to look for the others, but as the CVS HOWTO on sourceforge explains, http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cvstarballs/ contains tarballs of the cvsroot for each project, generated nightly. So that part is not a big deal, other than finding another place to host it that's half as good :-) (end-users note - these are not cvs snapshot tarballs, they are copies of the full repository including all revision history, suitable for setting up a new cvs server with all the old info, not for direct use). -- and no, I have no connection to sourceforge, not even a project hosted on it :-)
