I suspect the Yocto Project TSC is the decision making "authority" for this although it obviously needs to be done in conjunction with the maintainer. > On 7/23/23 07:55, Alexander Kanavin wrote: > > May I suggest trying out sourcehut as the hosting provider for opkg? > > > > https://sourcehut.org > > > > It has all the web niceties, but it's also been built from the ground > > up to integrate with the email workflow, unlike any of the 'big' SCM > > providers, so if that works out well for opkg, we could consider using > > it elsewhere (yes, the core yocto repos :) > > That's an idea.

Moving the list to groups.io where the rest of the Yocto Project/OE lists are is straight forward and easy to do, if you request that we can just make that happen. As has been mentioned, "we" have mixed feelings on github/gitlab. There are some layers that use those workflows and our policy is that it needs to be documented in the project's README, whatever the submission process is. That decision really comes down to the layer maintainer. sourcehut does sound interesting. Looks like you can run your own instance or their servers, the latter eventually encouraging you to support them (which is fair enough). Yocto Project probably can't use their servers without some kind of support in place. I really don't know enough about it to know how much it makes sense. It is described as "alpha" which probably isn't ready for us to depend on too. I am curious though... Cheers, Richard
