Nice Idea

Random idea, and not sure where to put it... ;)
With the GlusterFS project, we do our patch reviewing and
stuff using a system called Gerrit. (not that impressed
with it tbh)
A large problem is that Gerrit needs to control the source
code repo itself. This has stopped us from having our
primary source code repo on GitHub - where the largest
Open Source dev Community is.
Note - We do have a mirror repo there... but Pull Requests
aren't accepted through it, and it's more of a "tick the
box" kind of presence than driving growth.
... but now we've discovered "GerritHub". This is a system
that uses GitHub for the backend repo storage, but with a
Gerrit front end. People can submit patches through either
GitHub OR the Gerrit front end, and they go into Gerrit
properly. It uses a Gerrit-GitHub plugin for part of this
integration.
The thought occurred that some Fossil users probably have
a similar problem (but with Fossil, not Gerrit). If so,
it might be nifty idea for someone (not me ;>), to create
a Fossil-GitHub plugin, which actively keeps patch sets
in sync between the two systems too.
This would let people have their repos on GitHub - a source
of much potential growth - but use Fossil too.
Crap idea or not? :)
Regards and best wishes,
Justin Clift
