As, I believe, is darcs. >> 2) I know who runs/controls c.h.o, but not github (so if something >> goes wrong...) > > If something goes wrong, the maintainer of c.h.o can commiserate with > you about it being down. > I suspect he/she doesn't have a large team of dedicated sysadmins to > put it right, or a set of redundant servers. There's also the data ownership issue, in that I'm more likely to trust others in the Haskell community than I am from people that make money from the website I'm using. >> 3) Maturity?

I more use c.h.o as a place to have a place to store the code for others to look at if they need so, and so I can work both at uni and at home on the same codebase. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic [email protected] IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
