In my opinion the idea isn't necessarily for the FSF to host it, but definitely to promote it. This isn't about repo hosting but rather about making it easy for people to find projects to contribute to and some guidance on where to get started. Having the FSF promote this site (not necessarily host it) would help to ensure that people in the Free Software world know where to go, ie. help it to become known. -- Nicolás Ortega Froysa (Deathsbreed) https://themusicinnoise.net/ http://uk7ewohr7xpjuaca.onion/ Public PGP Key: https://themusicinnoise.net/deathsbreed@themusicinnoise.net_pub.asc http://uk7ewohr7xpjuaca.onion/deathsbreed@themusicinnoise.net_pub.asc
