I’m currently looking into getting our project management infrastructure out there to the next level. And there are plenty of providers filling this niche already. Unfortunately none seem to quite provide us with the service we are looking for, at the right price (nothing - or next to it).
This leaves us to consider purchasing some webspace and deploying the right software for us… and then reselling the remaining bandwidth… for the price that we’d be willing to pay.
So how big would the market be in New Zealand/Australasia? We’d be looking at purchasing a service that allowed us to run Subversion, perhaps Trac/Bugzilla… it would cost about NZ$5 a month. You’d be able to maintain your own source repository and defect management application, with unlimited accounts.
You wouldn’t need to worry about licensing the source code.

Maybe a combination of Lighthouse and Warehouse would work? Fairly cheap but you would have to host the subversion yourself. In saying that it can be really cheap to do that. I personally host on Dreamhost at the lower end of the scale but it works fine for SVN.
