You mean like what was decided a few months back and mentioned again as recently as last week in the thread with the subject `housekeeping'? > and to sourceforge and its "twenty clicks for every single simple operation" Sourceforge has its quirks, but I doubt there is a lot of enthusiasm for the amount of work involved in migrating the entire project. Speaking for myself, I would rather just write code. However, if anyone has experience in moving a FreeCol-sized project to alternative hosting, I am interested to hear about it. Meanwhile however, we should deal with one substantial transition at a time IMNSHO. > I'm sure that a git repo with the ability to send pull requests would lower > quite a bit the effort needed to contribuite Opinions are mixed on the subject. We have had contributors that were strongly opposed to moving to git. Nor am I entirely convinced sending pull requests is a big win for FreeCol. They work for Linux when a fairly major body of work is occurring which requires review yet is too large for a just an attached diff on a mail message. FreeCol is miniscule in comparison, the bar to full commit privileges is low, and attached diffs work fine here. Cheers, Mike Pope
