If the worst were to happen, and a few years down the road VA were to run out of cash before being profitable, I'm pretty sure that SF could be taken over by someone else, and of course all the projects are on ftp[1-x].sf.net sites which are mirrored already.
It couldn't be "taken over" by anyone else without cash changing hands. It's a corporate asset of VA Linux Systems, Inc. -- the Inc. is the important part there. Publicly traded companies going belly up don't get to "give" their assets away, they sell them - at fair market value - or they face lawsuits from shareholders.
