Now that Gitorious is shutting down, and that in the meantime we have several git repositories hosted under github.com/CentOS, all those facts lead me to the simple conclusion that hosting now t_functional under Github.com/CentOS makes just sense. (and it seems collaboration on github is easy, as we got several PR on those git repositories, while very few on gitorious, probably because almost everybody had an account on github, but not on gitorious) Now, a longer debate around "do we have to move from Github to something else" is then another debate, but wider than the "t_functional repository needs to move now from gitorious" So, I'd say "+1" on the move to github (short-term) - -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | http://www.centos.org gpg key: 56BEC54E | twitter: @arrfab -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlT6/LQACgkQnVkHo1a+xU7lCACeKI8yg2pcjbbXfS12ah6o7vBD Ro8AnA8YeFrtuW++BDGlztmgEOSnQrIC =hJsJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
