+1 this is how we did it in Marconi (except for the repo with push
access). At the beginning, we kept a core team of 2 developers despite
there being at least 4 ppl working on the project. This allowed the
team to have better discussions on what got in the repo and what not.

One benefit of using stackforge is that you get a great CI system to
test your project with but the development will slow down for sure. We
started on stackforge right away, then had a 2 days hackathon on a
github fork which was not a good idea because we had to submit al
those patches for review after the hackathon. :(
