The ASF insists on all our repositories being mirrored on servers that we control [1] exactly for such reasons: being dependent on GitHub or any other commercial service would not work for our "we'll still be around in 50 years" mission. GitHub is very useful to our projects but if it were to go away of if their terms became unacceptable we can drop it and use something else, without losing any history. I hope situations like this help explain why the ASF is so picky about such things, like keeping full control on our code and data. -Bertrand [1] https://gitbox.apache.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
