It appears that Berlios is shortly discontinuing its repository service, and is suggesting that users move their projects to SourceForge.

Is anybody aware of any (free) alternative to SourceForge, Google Code etc. that operates entirely in Europe and strictly in compliance with European law?

Yes, you can use Gitorious. It was started in Norway, and still run from there. The company Gitorious AS (which runs gitorious.org) is also registered in Norway. [http://www.gitorious.com/contact]

Thanks, noted although their reticence to publish pricing stands against them.

I must admit that I was hoping to find something with more of a SourceForge-like business model, i.e. a few Mb free space but they serve adverts.

I believe that is only if you want a private or corporate repository. SourceForge and Github do exactly the same.

gitorious.org is free for open source projects as far as I know.
