Hi all, Last October I saw on opensuse-factory that gitorious is deprecated in favour of github: http://lists.opensuse.org/archive/opensuse-factory/2013-08/msg00183.html Personally I think I agree with this move[1], but it seems that there is still quite a bit of activity at https://gitorious.org/opensuse/ - so please can someone confirm that this really is the general consensus? Either way, IMHO it would be very helpful to have an official policy on git hosting, and the only effective way to do that is to publically document it (on the wiki) and then announce it. I see a few options for what this policy page could say: 1. "Please move from gitorious to github; here's how to do it, and make sure you [leave behind a redirect|delete the gitorious project]." 2. "We recommend that new projects should be started on github and that existing projects on gitorious be moved but it's also OK to keep them at gitorious." 3. "Host projects wherever you want. Here are steps for how to host on gitorious and github." Of course it should also clarify what makes a project "officially openSUSE" vs. someone's personal hack. Sorry if this is already covered somewhere and I missed it. For example there's nothing obvious linked from https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Development Cheers, Adam [1] github is clearly technically superior, although there is a debate about the suitability of using a hosting service based on closed technology, even when export/migration isn't too problematic. I wonder what the FSF thinks about GitHub, but that's another discussion ... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
