The web interface got rewritten into a sluggish pile of JavaScript that either broke things which used to just work, or made them so horribly slow that using them became a PITA.

It offered free and open-source projects a reputable home and, more importantly, an equally free one, run by a non-profit association rather than a subsidiary of the largest software vendor on the planet.
