There is GitLab Inc, and GitLab the product. GitLab the product is open souce, and you can host it yourself. .. If you want to be in hosting business. GitLab Inc. is a company that runs GitLab.com. Which is a hosting platform similar to GitHub (see the H). ... So what happens now to GitHub can also happen to GitLab Inc., the company! ... But we (TiddlyWiki community) have a functionality problem. I'm not sure, if GitLab can fix it. Jeremy wants to keep the repository structure. .. Which in my opinion can't be managed with github. ... I personally can't find a way to configure, write-access on the directory level. .. The only way github allows, is per repositroy access configuration. ... Which Jeremy doesn't want. ... So back to step 1. ------------- IF MS aquires Github, we will need to see, how they behave. It may be possible, that they open source the whole thing. So, there may be more possibilities, as now. Some Enterprise edtion features may be free in the future. ... see may be! They definitely will create closer integration with Microsoft Accounts. .... Which not necessarily is a good thing (for me) -------------- At the moment, I'd say, we have a closer look at GitLab workflow, which is 90% the same, since git is the underlaying technology. The existing possibilities are more advanced as GitHub at the moment. ... So we can create a new group there. tiddlywiki ... Is already taken!! So we would need to get it back. I did grab "tiddlywiki5" and "tiddlywiki.org" I'll invite you, to the .org and we can play around with it, if you want. I can also invite you to https://github.com/tiddlywiki-org/ at GitHub, if you want. have fun! mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
