3/ What would happen to the automatic GitHub mirroring when we rename unofficial projects ? I suspect the mirroring would stop ? Would we automatically remove the no-longer-mirrored project from GitHub ?
ARA is an "unofficial" OpenStack project that would be part of this move and I would appreciate if ARA could remain on GitHub where the Ansible community is. "Free software needs free tools" [1] certainly ranks at the top of the presentations I have attended and I have the utmost respect for the four opens, the foundation's values and mission. Please do not consider that I have sold my soul to proprietary software vendors. A Fedora council blog post [2] has recently worded this better than I probably could: --- Ideally, we want everything to be on open source services (e.g. Taiga, Pagure, or GitLab). But, as a pragmatic matter, we recognize that GitHub has a huge network effect — there are millions of users and developers there, and millions of open source and free software projects hosted there, including software that’s fundamental to the Fedora operating system. --- Is there a way to make this work ?
