What GitHub brings to the table are the review and collaboration tools. If you don’t need them, then you don’t need GitHub. Kind regards, Kirk > On Jun 7, 2018, at 4:23 PM, Geertjan Wielenga > wrote: > > We’re using GitHub as a convenience, thanks to GitBox. But there’s no > requirement to

I say good for GitHub.. I don’t think MS will be a problem… At least not right away. And if they are, it’s pretty easy to move to a new git home. — Kirk > On Jun 5, 2018, at 1:58 PM, Peter Cheung wrote: > > Codeplex, nokia, robotVM, all dead > > > From:
