as far as i understood the implications on a quick read and since their desired model is the current github model as a comparison, why move from a closed source online service which provides free of charge project hosting, given there are no license clashes - i.e. subsurface will still remain GPL compliant? if subsurface applies a new ideology in the lines of "we will not use a closed source online service", then subsurface should stop using github as well. "The decision was engineering-driven, not business-driven" if the above is true and unless they suddenly add some limitations for a free project after the change, such as 10 max languages i don't see the need to switch services. 2c lubomir -- _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.hohndel.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
