no, github is not documented, for the same reason that pagure was not; because they were not intended for general use, and i am the only one who watches either - i would disable issues and pull-requests on both forges, if i decide not to watch them, and no one else wants to do it On Mon, 8 Nov 2021 05:06:14 -0600 Colby wrote: > It would probably do the project well (most GNU projects, really) to add > an emphatic note that the use of Savannah is intentional and that the > signpost pointing people there is "current". I'd wager that most > people, upon seeing "Savannah" mentioned in the documentation of an > otherwise active project im pretty confused by that statement - how is GNU or savannah special in that regard, from any other projects or forges? - does GNU or savannah have the reputation of hosting predominantly "dead" projects? - i do not suppose that - if an "otherwise active project" were hosted on github, should their documentation say: > The code is hosted on github.com. > NOTE: THIS IS INTENTIONAL!!! > NOTE: THIS IS CURRENT INFORMATION!!! conversely, would people who see: "The code is on github.com" generally assume that the project is active (and would that assumption be correct usually)? - i think not - it is not good reasoning
