For me arguably not. For D users used to GitHub, I suspect it may be. I can imagine them saying "The repo is on GitHub why the #### do I have to go to some unheard of closing down system, sign up and login, to submit bug reports." Even were I to move the repo to BitBucket – and if I can work out how to get the equivalent of Travis-CI working from a Git repository on BitBucket, I'm happy to do that – the same argument regarding issues and Tigris would apply. I will though look to move to BitBucket on the assumption SCons is staying there – which seems sensible, at least in the short term. Clearly no-one has the energy or resource to be tackling the "transfer the issue handler" just now. But I can imagine the very act of suggesting we get stuck into this will bring up the arguments about how the BitBucket issue handler is rubbish, and all actual progress will be stiffled. What is needed here is action ignoring the words. Someone already had at least part of a "get stuff out of Tigris and put it in BitBucket". I suggest we update it, do any further tweaks, run it, switch to BitBucket and leave ourselves open to a better workflow. And ignore the moans from people who like the Tigris system. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
