Hi,
Sorry if it seems I am jumping in from nowhere. We have a working trac/
git for you guys right now. See :

That I believe too. They really are fundamentally different ways of
thinking about development, so it's not entirely surprising the
tools don't mesh well.
I've already asked the OSUOSL folks for help here - they seemed eager
to help us setup a trac/git demo instance; I've got cotto cc'd on the
ticket. (See today's parrotsketch for more on this.)
Excellent, thanks!

This supposes that there is someone to give "them" an answer. Just to
be clear, them is us.
Actually, what I was thinking is that while I'm quite happy to leave
it at "maybe someday", I sense that for some people this is a
question with more urgency. It was an intentionally passive sentence
(no agents implied), not poor writing.
I don't expect this decision to come from any individual on the
board,
or even the board as a collective, but to probably come from a
supermajority of the members. This discussion has been framed, for
good or ill, as a "convince allison" discussion for some time. I'm
pretty sure that that is not a healthy direction for us to go in.
We're seeking consensus, which is pretty much the way we always run.
We respect each other's opinions, and that is a very healthy thing.
I count around 5 people advocating for git, a large number of
neutrals, and a dwindling number opposed to the change.
I'm asking for people to raise their objections now, because if it
turns out I'm the *only* one still opposed to the change, I'll yield
(since, as I said in the IRC discussion, most of my objections
center around protecting others in the project). I'll still be a
hard-ass about migration plans, this is not a change to be made
lightly.
Allison
