The officers of the Unicode Consortium (http://unicode.org) have discussed this issue, and are interested in exploring hosting the TZ efforts. Aside from the Unicode projects, we currently also support other independent efforts (http://www.unicode.org/iso15924/, http://www.unicode.org/udhr/). Hosting the TZ project would provide for mailing list hosting, code distribution, source code repository (SVN) if desired, etc., web pages, etc. -- presuming that the functioning of the TZ group would continue basically as it does now.
Unicode also host the CLDR - Common Locale Data Repository. Although not the same as the TZ data, there is at least some commonality in theme.
If there is interest in something along these lines, we can discuss more specifics of what this would look like and then pass a proposal by our board of directors.
