I'm not running (very disappointing, I know), but that doesn't stop me from having an opinion :P On Mon, Nov 28 2022 at 14:12:18 +0100, Richard Brown <rbrown@suse.de> wrote:
We are a project that has historically struggled to run single- instance, centralised infrastructure for key parts of our project operation.
eg. Our members database on https://connect.opensuse.org is no more eg2. Our TSP and voting tooling have both been stories of long struggles by very few people.
We would be much better off sharing as much maintenance burden as possible with other open source projects. We really do not do it enough. The less custom software we deploy, the better. The more maintained the better. For solutions we do already develop, we should be striving to attract as many new contributors and users of that as we can, to attract more contributions coming from more organizations. TravelSupport and quite a few other web apps could be much more of a success story, they really just lacked any maintenance over the years. Blockchain has not proven itself to be a great developer, so I think relying on it to improve this situation is not going to end up fruitful though. We need more hands on deck if we want our great ideas to happen and flourish. LCP [Jake] https://lcp.world/
