I don't remember any big comparison analysis. Some people pushed for bitbucket, a number was using it already, and the others didn't mind. The main effort and focus was on the conversion of the svn repository, anyway. > Before, we had codespeak.net which was very convenient because > I knew all relevant people in person. We have some personal contacts to bitbucket - they actually sponsor an unlimited plan for PyPy. Moreover, some pypy devs wanted a hosting solution where we do not depend on private connects or work but can rather rely on a company basing their business on such hosting. > Python used sourceforge before, but preferred to have the freedom > to host their data themselves. > By using python.org, PyPy would have similar convenience as > before. > Therefore my question: What makes bitbucket the better choice over > python.org, despite free t-shirts? (which might be an important reason > for some :-) ) PyPy has by now quite some integration code wrt to bitbucket. It seems all are quite happy with bitbucket services as it stands. So seen from now the question probably rather is why we should move anywhere else. best, holger > still wondering -- chris > > -- > Christian Tismer :^)<mailto:[email protected]> > tismerysoft GmbH : Have a break!
