But maybe you are right, maybe Rainer really phrased it like this in order to say "this is THE rsyslog repo *on Github*, all other rsyslog repos you see on Github and probably forks of this repo". And the "on Github" part implies that this is the official rsyslog repo *ONLY* on Github and there are actually other non-Github repos.... and if so, I don't quite get why. Sure, I get the fear of Github disappearing, but while Github is here, wouldn't it be simpler to just think of that repo as THE official repo? Please see below. > If github goes away, it doesn't take _the_ master repo with it. > Right, because the Adiscon one is in sync, or at least that's my understanding. So if that is the case, isn't this Adiscon repo simply "Adiscon's insurance" in case Github disappears and not something Rsyslog contributors really need to know (or be confused by)?

Would be a little confusing and needless IMHO, but I may be missing something.
