Hello all, I would be very happy, if the sources would be ported to something with Git.
I also thought about using just Github, or even a self hosted instance of Gitea. But I think it could not provide, what a forum and/or dedicated wiki can provide. I think the users are a bit too restricted, to what Github provides. Also for a true open source project with Linux, Microsofts Github.com would not be the perfect choice, I think. Dokuwiki provides plugins for almost everything. I'm really very happy with that! Github's Wiki is not very powerful at all. @Florian, how do you think about a dedicated DokuWiki and phpBB or Discourse? I think it would perfectly fit into your domain etherlab.org, but I have no influence on that. If no one starts some collaboration platform, I'll just go ahead. It costs about 50€/year on Netcup.de, nothing to worry about. If IgH could provide that, I would also be very happy. @Niko: Thanks for the hint to registered trademarks (or somthing like that) for EtherCAT and EtherLab. How about using this in a domain name? By all means we should take care, that the community isn't split up into different similar tools. That's my two cents.
