yes. There are more drive-by people on github, than there are those that know where freedesktop.org cgit is, where systemd wiki is, where systemd mailing list is, and how to setup MTA to not mangle patches, and send them through. And even if there are drive-by people who shoot an email to the mailing list, we have enough reviewers / comiters who will be able to apply that. > In my proposal which touches quite few other things ( including replacing > both bugzilla and freedesktop wiki ) which is necessary to make things work > smoothly for future growth/expansion in the community and systemd adoption, > is it not better we would host this ourselves under our own domain ( I have > already secured systemd.community domain for that purpose ) on our own > instances? > maintaining /own/ infrastructure does not improve systemd code base. > Do people prefer these things being hosted at sites which one does not have > full control over? adequate infrastructure is sufficient here. there is no paranoia about hypothetical full control, or lack of it. if everything fails, most of us have systemd git clones to move things elsewhere again. Or when we find something better to use. -- Regards, Dimitri. Pura Vida! https://clearlinux.org Open Source Technology Center Intel Corporation (UK) Ltd. - Co.
