Hi, my 2cts (and I have a partial view of what is discussed here)
Who actually are the target of this desire of move: developers (who are missing ability to do some magics in the backend) or issue reporters (who would find Redmine difficult and Github better/easier)? As an issue reporter I agree that Redmine may not obvious at the beginning (i've been lost many times), not sexy and missed the ability to ping people. Now that i'm used to it and given the latest changes, it does what I need to do (and I agree that my needs may be lower than developers'). Apart from Github design being more appealing, and once again regarding what I do with it, i fail to see what it offers more than Redmine (from an issue report management perspective of course). I even wonder if it's possible in github (fail to find such a repo) for the reporter to label/tag the issue he is reporting or will we deploy a team to do things the reporter currently does himself in Redmine (set category, release...). so I personally have no problem to stay there. What I however really find not obvious is to have two different platforms to report bugs (application vs website/docs). >From a developer's perspective, I do not feel comfortable to express an opinion. I also think that if we have to move, it should not be only for technical reason; as some have already pointed out, there might be strategy but also ethics. If there are tools fully open source that do the job (and used by OSGeo members), we should really consider moving to them (and contribute to improve them) rather than staying (only) on a proprietary tool (even though there are tools to migrate). Better do the move once than twice (do not forget that we would surely lose contributors in the move). About Loomio votes, while some voters express their own convictions, I'd like to remind that half of the voting members are representing their national user group (whose members do not all/always follow this thread) and from what I understand (but maybe I misunderstand this role) they are their voice. So before any vote is proposed, it'd be nice to know what would be the question(s) to vote on and give time to those voting members to get some feedback from "their community". Thanks.
