I guess I won't be the only one being happy to see this policy revisited
(and changed).

Seriously: The "Linux Foundation" should to better.

OK.

Sure, I'll give you all this off-list.

Great. We have some good contacts as well (some even on this list), helping
us improve the situation at the beginning, but due to the number of pending
issues and pull-reqs, we didn't want to break everything by then, and since
we've fixed this we haven't made progress (mostly by lack of demand I'd say).
Your argument above is a good reason to complete the move.

That could even be easier to set up, I didn't know.

Yep, we're well aware :-)

We've set up our scraper to make use of GitHub and GitHub mirrors rather
than being able to access any git repo.

Would it be possible for you to connect me to the owner of the haproxy
mirror ? We have a good relationship with
GitHub, and GitHub might be willing to take over the mirror and get it up
to date again. Note that GitHub currently mirrors a number of projects <
https://help.github.com/articles/about-github-mirrors/>. And that GitHub is
an HAProxy user <

Yes, and he's not opposed to it, he just doesn't have much time to deal
with this. In short we "just" have to move this repository somewhere
else, possibly on his personal account, and reuse it to periodically
push updates. Now that Lukas has purged all issues and pull requests,
I'd say that there is not much showstopper to do it. I simply have no
idea how to proceed from here :-/

Have you asked the maintainer of the github fork to change the project to 
'unofficial-haproxy' or
something else?

The Github link above is not a mirror, it's an unofficial fork with a few
local patches which has already caused some confusion in the past as it
was receiving issues and pull requests that were ignored.

The correct Git URLs are :

http://git.haproxy.org/git/haproxy.git/(development tree)
http://git.haproxy.org/git/haproxy-1.8.git/(1.8 stable tree)

Hoping this helps,
Willy

Updating the unofficial GitHub mirror

I'm the author of the CNCF Cloud Native Interactive Landscape, which tracks
projects and products used in open source. We include HAProxy:

https://landscape.cncf.io/grouping=no=ha-proxy=latest-commit

However, our info on latest commit is out of date because
https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy is no longer mirroring
http://www.haproxy.org/. Would it be possible to update the mirror, please?
