I believe so. I cced Roland who is upstream Gforge developer. But I'm not
sure it's worth the effort really... people can always send the request to
the mailing list and give their Alioth login and admins can add them
directly. Nobody is forced to used the "request to join" web page.

Everything important is in the wiki:
http://wiki.debian.org/Alioth
And you'll find a pointer to the bzr tree in use on Alioth.
