Stronger hierarchy has costs. To create a repo under the mozilla organization I must have a relationship with someone with admin rights to create the group, add people, etc. To make a new umbrella group for my team, I don't have to interact with anyone but current contributors. I don't have to ask permission. I don't have to wait for a response. There's less cognitive overhead dealing with a smaller group of contributors and repositories. I suspect this is a significant factor in the proliferation of mozilla-foo organizations on github. I don't think it's a bad thing. -r _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
