Greetings,
Based on a brief review of your project, it appears that your project has produced a body of work which may be of use to other developers in the future. SourceForge.net provides hosting to a variety of Open Source software development projects, and projects producing documentation for the Open Source community. It is the policy of SourceForge.net that projects which have produced material shall not be removed except under special circumstances (such as some legally compelling reason, i.e. DMCA or trademark issue).
Documentation on this subject (our project removal policies) may be found at: https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=14041&gr oup_id=1
Please determine whether another member of your project team would be interested in taking over administrative control of this effort. If you wish to be removed from the project in question, we will be glad to assist in this process. If no further response is received, we will leave your project intact, as per our policies. Please let us know how you wish to proceed, by adding a comment to this support request.
Thank you,

I will be interested to hear how your move goes.
