Hi,

instance, where users need separate accounts and that cannot cross-link
to
pull requests or where users cannot easily @GetSomebodysAttentionLikeThis

docs on rsyslog.com

Bugzilla?)
Does this feel like it will be a PITA for contributors and even consumers
of info stored in all these various places?
I am glad I blogged about, so here is another reference:

Comments are welcome.
When I saw this one my first thought was "yeah, and your blog is yet
another place for documentation". Then I thought I'm just as guilty for
posting stuff on blog.sematext.com - yet another place.
I'm thinking if there's a way to keep this "independence", and still have a
central place to look for stuff. For example, like you have a script to
sync the GitHub repo to the Adiscon git... could we sync Bugzilla with the
issues?
Or maybe even skip trying to keep them in sync. How about leaving a note in
Bugzilla "please open issues on GitHub"? There are not that many issues
there right now, anyway. And if we know we can revert to Bugzilla, we know
we have a way out, if GitHub pulls out a SourceForge.
Please no.
moving all this to github doesn't really gain us much. As you noted other
projects that are considered 'good' don't do this so it's not a requirement.
see my other post about potentially leveraging github logins though.
Rainers blog posts are something that need to be mined and captured by the docs
folks, there is a lot of critical stuff there.
