Hey, like the new gitorious.org. I like the project-centric approach to
repositories. My Github account was getting cluttered with a bunch of
functionally-related repositories, and it's nice to group them, and to
have the option of sharing control if they ever take off. I'll be
migrating my projects shortly. I did have some questions and suggestions
first, though.

First, licensing. Can we have the ability to set a license per
repository as well as per project? Maybe each repository gets its own
license inherited from the default set by the project? It seems a bit
artificial to me to decide that all project code is under a uniform
license. What about projects under software licenses, with a versioned
website or dataset under some version of the CC license? What I've done
for one of my projects is to set its license to "other," then require
that the user check the repository content itself for the license, but
while that works, without repository-specific licensing you've either
got a situation where the field is useless at best or inaccurate at
worst (in more complex cases, anyway.)

Also, is it possible to rename a repository after creation? Seems like
it should be, but I can't find how. Is this a remnant of the one repo
per project model wherein renaming the repository wouldn't make sense?
Thinking it might be, as there are still spots where "project" seems to
take the place of "repository," but not entirely sure.

Finally, is it possible to associate an OpenID with an existing account?
I poked around a bit on the user profile page but nothing jumped out at
me.

Thanks again for a cool service.
