If we want to try GitHub for flink-web, a second step could to switch and use with the nascent flink-libraries. > On Jun 18, 2017, at 6:50 AM, Chesnay Schepler <ches...@apache.org> wrote: > > Found some info in this JIRA: > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-14191 > > Apparently, Gitbox is still in the beta phase.
