For the sake of independence and self-governance (or whatever is the appropriate english term here) the ASF should try to be as self-hosting as possible.
I complete agree, we should *try*. Given that there is not an option to do what we want, IMHO it seems reasonable to consider alternatives that do not tax a group of volunteers, a thankless group that the organization has chosen to keep largely volunteer-based and minimally funded.
FWIW a new board member has voiced some long time views of ASF hosting features, and that has created something of a firestorm. I think this is an unfair burden to put on the infrastructure team, but if they want to scratch the itch, that's great.
Mind you, I'm still +0 on the idea. :) I don't think it's perfect but bristle at these claims that we are violating faux official policies.
