I think both are powered by http://gforge.org/ - it probably wouldn't
be difficult to set up something similar for R.

Since the R sources have moved to svn, an obvious candidate for this
would seem to be trac (http://edgewall.com/trac/), which provides
issue tracking and integrates very nicely with svn.  Its wiki-type
facilities could potentially be used for future planning as well.
