*User Repos* TLDR: I would like to make user repos read-only by April 30th. We should archive them by May 31st.
I think that if you truly intend to go ahead with this, the news will need way, way wider circulation than mozilla.dev.platform. I have some useful software stored in a user repo, and I only happen to read this group. It will also need much more lead time than a month.
I'm also somewhat surprised that this has been proposed without any previous attempt to measure the impact of doing it. Or has such work been done, but the results not published? How often are all these repos pulled from or pushed to? Could we achieve many of the gains by getting people to clean up after themselves, rather than eliminating the capability entirely?
I don't think you're suggesting this, but just to be clear: I'm against storing our repo of record for anything of long-term importance on any system other than our own. And yes, I know about B2G.
