That arcane and bizarre process for applying to use it for an open source project is immediately off-putting to me and gives me little confidence in the UX design of the software. On 11/17/2017 01:12 AM, Sébastien Blaisot wrote: Le 16/11/2017 à 18:44, Sean M. Pappalardo - D.J. Pegasus a écrit

I took a closer look at GitLab and I'm pretty convinced we should switch to it for issue tracking, code hosting, and continuous integration after the 2.1 release. It has come a long way in the last few years and seems to be better than GitHub at this point. I have compiled a list of GitLab's

Of course. It would be silly to switch to GitLab for issues without also switching to it for code hosting. Looking more at GitLab, it seems to have quite a few nice features that GitHub does not. I am working on comparing them on the wiki, feel free to contribute:

Moving to gitlab for issues while sticking to github for code would come with all the annoyances of having to switch systems without any of the benefits of having code and issues in the same place.. On Thu, Nov 16, 2017 at 5:41 PM, Sean M. Pappalardo - D.J. Pegasus < spappala...@mixxx.org> wrote:

Yeah, GitLab and GitHub are similar AFAIK. I think GitLab lagged behind GitHub in features in the past but they're pretty even at this point. I like that the GitLab server software is free, so I'd personally start a new project on GitLab, but I haven't found a convincing reason why it would be

Hi. Yesterday I had a look at the manual after quite a while and found it very hard to read on screen. These issues jump out immediately: - serif font is fine for printing, but sucks on screens - lines are way too long, respectivly: - format is to wide to have it next to or on top of mixxx
