I would like to understand the reasoning behind wanting to ditch redmine in favour of <whatever> ? We only fairly recently spent quite a lot of effort on upgrading redmine.

I don't even remember this being discussed ? Maybe I missed that meeting, dunno.

We discussed it in the Heroes meetings last spring, I think?

The face-to-face meeting, pre-corona ? I would say unlikely. That was in February, I think tuanpembual was still working on the upgrade. Mind you, my sense of time has been rapidly deteriorating during Corona. Still, see issue#27720 where tuanpembual confirms upgrade complete, April 16 2020.

It was also talked about at the oSLO last October.

Maybe we can have a rehash of the reasoning, the "business case" ? IOW, please sell the idea to me. I see two keys issues: a) largely negating the valuable contribution of tuanpembual b) lack of actual issues with redmine. Personally speaking, redmine works well for me. We (the heroes) do not seem to have much effort with managing it, it _just_ works. If I were in a corporate competitive environment, I could easily work up an argument as to why Redmine is s*** and has to be changed, but I am not in a corporate environment. Again speaking personally, I really do not want to scale yet another learning curve dealing with the shitty implementation of the "next thing". TBH, mailman3 is bad enough. Hence, I want to see the reasoning and the business case. Neither of which has been forthcoming ? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (2.6°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes
