Just out of curiosity, what happened with this in the end?
I just noticed a few more suggestions that Github-style pull requests
would be really useful.
There were valid opinions expressed for both staying on FedoraHosted and
migrating to GitHub. So, effectively, a stalemate.
The SSG community has grown amazingly -- both in contributors and usage
-- and because of this success Red Hat is preparing to ship SSG in
future versions of RHEL [1]. This exacerbates the need for a manageable
ticketing system with easy patch submission as very shortly every RHEL
installation will have a copy of SSG. FedoraHosted simply wasn't
designed to include the same tooling and developer ecosystem as afforded
on GitHub (and that's NOT a ding against it's designers!).
The community is a coalition of the willing. Our shared purpose drives
the community, and I strongly feel the need to build out tools that will
allow us to scale. I'm concerned -- likely overly so -- at how to
prepare for a wave of interest once we begin shipping in RHEL.
With that said, who am I to *mandate* the migration to GitHub?
Admittedly part of me wants to just go ahead and do it, however that
could come at making a non-trivial amount of people (esp. committers,
who would be effected by the change) feel alienated/ignored. Certainly
we can't make everyone happy all the time, though.
Thoughts would be *most* welcome.
