>As mentioned before, we can't use github enterprise at all, since it
doesn't allow for hosting public repos. Let's ignore that it even exists.

I feel like as Wikipedia is one of the top 10 most visited sites on the
Internet we might be able to work out something special with them though
right?  I'm not saying we have to go down that route, nor have I even
examined all the advantages and disadvantages of the idea.  I feel though
that the possibility exists though and should be looked into.

If I was GitHub and the WMF approached me about potentially using GitHub
Enterprise for MediaWiki and MediaWiki extensions and NOT for creating a
competition service to GitHub, then I would likely entertain the idea of
crafting a special set of terms for them.  Furthermore, I personally might
even charge them differently given that that charging per developer would be
crippling to an open-source project.  Of course, I am not GitHub, nor can I
anticipate what they might do, nor their internal policies, but I can speak
for myself and how I would run a FOSS focused company.

Thank you,
Derric Atzrott
