Agreed. I'd posited early on that along w a move to *some* VCS hosting provider we needed to consolidate the all else around NHForge so that all existing deprecated resources could simply point to NHForge as a hub from which links to all else (JIRA, downloads, whatever) could emanate.
With JIRA remaining hosted by Atlassian, source somewhere (yet to be decided), what other than downloads still needs a 'home' at this point? -Steve B. -----Original Message----- From: Julian Maughan <[email protected]> Sender: [email protected] Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2011 06:48:15 To: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [nhibernate-development] VCS Vote I just think if the project infrastructure is too fragmented, it will become confusing. I think we can divide the infrastructure into two categories: front-of-shop and back-of-shop. I think it is important there is one place users go for downloads, doco, etc. (NHForge). The back-of-shop stuff - eg (VCS, bug-tracker) - it doesn't matter so much. That is the reason I raised the question about download hosting.
