This project is currently hosted on GitHub. This is not ideal; GitHub is a
|
|
|
|
|
proprietary, trade-secret system that is not Free and Open Souce Software
|
|
|
|
|
(FOSS). We are deeply concerned about using a proprietary system like GitHub
|
|
|
|
|
to develop our FOSS project. We have an
|
|
|
|
|
[open {bug ticket, mailing list thread, etc.} ](INSERT_LINK) where the
|
|
|
|
|
project contributors are actively discussing how we can move away from GitHub
|
|
|
|
|
in the long term. We urge you to read about the
|
|
|
|
|
[Give up GitHub](https://GiveUpGitHub.org) campaign from
|
|
|
|
|
[the Software Freedom Conservancy](https://sfconservancy.org) to understand
|
|
|
|
|
some of the reasons why GitHub is not a good place to host FOSS projects.
