I don’t think this is really all that big of a deal. If we want to move off of Github doing so is easy. There are lots of (not nearly as good as but probably still better than what we have now) OSS software that gives you a github like flow. The only *data* that is really in there is what’s stored in the repository itself (since I don’t think for anything major we’d ever put issues there or use the wiki) which is trivial to move around. --- Donald Stufft PGP: 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
