But there is a cron job that updates the DNS configuration every hour (for new
projects):

see:
/etc/cron.d/sourceforge-dns-bind9 (debian-sf 2.6)
or 
/etc/cron.d/sourceforge (debian-sf 2.5)

I think you are not supposed to edit by hand neither dns.zone nor dns.head. 
These
files are autogenerated from dns.head.template and the sourceforge database.

Hope this helps,
