(i run libre-soc.org entirely self-hosted and made sure *all* resources are in git. mailing list (public-inbox - git), wiki (ikiwiki - git), bugtracker is the only one (i considered fossil and bugseverywhere) ah! i forgot! of course, there is fossil! https://opensource.com/article/20/11/fossil l. -- --- crowd-funded eco-conscious hardware: https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68
