The risks MS pose to the hosted projects are no different to the risks
GitHub posed. These risks are real, eg Geocities, but can be
mitigated. Git is a fully distibuted repository, so if GitHub were to
disappear overnight, the repositories will exist with all the commit
metadata on all the developer machines out there that have cloned the
repositories. It is a simple exercise to populate a new Git repository
with the contents of a locally cloned copy. As a result, I do not
worry about the source code for the projects I'm involved in.

My biggest worry is that the bugtracker data (called "issues" on
Github) might disappear. For my own projects, I use SourceForge's
tracker, which IMHO is slightly nicer, and for historical reasons, but
the same risks exist. I have a python script that grabs the contents
of all open tickets for a project on SF. The data is a bit scrambled,
but at least it will be possible to reconstruct the tickets on a
different system if required. It is also useful to get a local copy of
open issues for when I'm working offline on my laptop.

Cheers

There’s a generation of people that have an irrational dislike of Microsoft 
having to do with them being brutal competitors in the 1990s.
Never mind that they now have a huge research organization and are ahead of 
many in commercial deployment of advanced technologies, e.g.

Yup, really:

I am very excited to announce that Microsoft is acquiring GitHub and expect the 
agreement to close by the end of the year. While it will still take a few 
months to finalize, we wanted to share the news as soon as we were able.

Re: [FRIAM] Archiving Friam conversations as editable text.

[Nick Thompson]

Sorry, Glen.  

I keep seeming to have to apologize to you.  Apologies are not really 
repeatable, in my book, so it worries me.  Hm!  That's a meta-apology, I guess. 

Anyway, thanks for reminding me.  I am not sure I got the final stroke in that 
conversation or was just feckless.  If the latter, ugh!

Of course.  It'll take the exact same plain text format of the file on the

Anyway, I've saved everything (I think) FriAM has sent me since mid-Feb 2008.  
Mind you, the list seems to be a bit fickle, which is why I created 2 accounts

it's easy to assert that my archive will be incomplete.  But I'm happy to 
upload it somewhere if you have a use for it.

I used to take pride in retaining a copy of every e-mail I'd received since 
1995 or so.  Learning that only Bad Actors like Cambridge Analytica and Paladin 
care about such things has shamed me into deleting e-mail willy nilly.

Heh, I just had a friend float the idea that Hugh Everett was "laughed out of 
physics/academia".  Now, I'm not a fan of history or biography.  But that 
sounded wrong; so I googled it.  Now that I'm an expert, I assert that Everett 
didn't care about academia and any insult he felt from the rejection of his 
idea had more to do with a deeply seated dissatisfaction with all the people on 
earth. 8^)

You should really hold on to it.   Any random thing that hasn't been indexed to 
death may be worth some money one day.   And why not lord over out-of-context 
quotes on people from time to time?

[FRIAM] MS acquiring Github.

[Owen Densmore]
