To name a few:

SVN:

	http://coderepos.org/share/ # wikilike permission model

Git:

	http://repo.or.cz/ # noncommercial
	http://github.com/ # pretty easy to get things set up, fairly opensource friendly

or just host on plain HTTP and receive patches by email.

Darcs also works this way (HTTP+Email is fully supported), and even
lets you set up an email address as part of the repo meta data.
That's what I have set up for all my CPAN code.

If you move away from SVN to something like git or darcs etc the
hosting headache and barrier for random people contributing is very
very low, which is nice.
