to clarify:
* I'm not neutral: I'm in favour of any system user find useful,
*provided* we don't miss the history; this is a blocker for me
* I would prefer a 100% free solution, and to to get stuck with a
proprietary one; this is not a blocker for me, but I wuold advise having
a reasonably way out, to avoid being locked in; this is a strategic, not
an ethical reason
* I'm not 100% sure "normal" people will find GH much easier than
redmine. we obviously have a bieased, non representative opinion on
this; perhaps better asking among regular user; I'm doing this in
qgis-it, I suggest to do the same for other QUGs
* I find interesting the idea of leaving Redmine for the 2 series, and
starting afresh with GH for 3; however, I'm really worried that this
will cause a lot of entropy, with users being confused on what to do,
duplicated tickets in both systems, etc.; e.g. an old ticket, from 2, is
fixed in 3, but not 2: should we leave it open in Redmine? I can see a
number of such puzzling cases.
All the best.
