[OTR-dev] git mirror, bug tracker, etc

[David Goulet]

Hi,

Well the previous thread is all about that! :)

http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/pipermail/otr-dev/2013-August/001845.html

With this new server that Ian will soon acquire, I do agree that we should
either deploy something like gitlab or Trac or Redmine. The other alternative is
to move on Gitorious (Open source ftw!) but last I checked, there is no Issue
tracker support...

IMHO, I think decentralizing is better but it's an overhead of system
administration for cypherpunks.ca.

To that, in any case, the main git repository should never be hosted on a
commercial service (Github, Gitorious, etc...) thus I would go personally for
one git repository on cypherpunks (or ideally otr.im :P) along with a tracker
system.

My two cents!

Cheers!
David
