FWIW, trisquel started using gitlab many years ago, when it was not nearly as libre-friendly as it is today, so you really can not credit it for that reason - it was also before pagure existed - i think if that decision had to be made again today, that gitlab is not the best choice for software freedom concerns - if any of the full-featured, self-hosted web forges should be encouraged above others, pagure (GPLv2+) and coding-team (AGPL) appear to have the most libre-conscious developers, and most of their sites' functionality works with javascript completely disabled (good engineering, yes Aaron?) however, i would not expect to see trisquel or any gitlab users change any time soon, mostly because it is very difficult to get your data out of those forges - almost all of them have an inherent "vendor lock-in" effect - pagure is the only one that makes complete migrations simple, which is the best reason to favor it IMHO _______________________________________________ libreplanet-discuss mailing list libreplanet-discuss@libreplanet.org https://lists.libreplanet.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss
