I have previously in the thread: Different subfolders in plasma-desktop.git have different maintainers, and it's not possible to toggle GitHub based on the preferences of each individual maintainer or group of maintainers. Which pushes this discussion simply one level down into the 'plasma-desktop.git community', which just like the git.kde.org community is comprised of separate projects and stakeholders. To wit: * The social topology of our community doesn't match our repository structure, and I don't think we should tie one to the other because they stem from different needs. * The idea of "common ownership" means we try to optimize kde.org specifically toward individual contributors not being silo'd into particular subcommunities but moving freely about, and trying not to insert barriers that make this harder or less likely. It's true that we want to allow subcommunities freedom over their ways of work- ing, and I'm not suggesting we don't. I am however suggesting that doing code review on GitHub for some projects and not others will in practice constitute such a barrier.
