The usage is not uniform and not being 100% supported / hosted by the CPE team. The rationale behind a requirements gathering process is clearly outlined in the blog post and we have never said we are replacing Pagure, we may opt to drive resourcing and time into it as one of the viable paths forward. > The only viable replacement is > >> Gitlab which is a open code project written in a language that isn't a > >> strong fit for Fedora.

We stated why the CPE team are considering this exercise, if you have questions I'm happy to try clarify them but I urge you to re-read the problem statement and approach in the blog post. > Which albeit being a great > > platform, is written in Ruby and there's a lot less Ruby devs in the > > Fedora community than Python devs. > > I have to apologize, this was far too harsh. It seems to be an emotive topic but thank you for apologising!

It would be premature and based on no real data to form that decision right now, hence the requirements exercise. Whatever solution is chosen will hopefully satisfy the requirements put forward by Fedora, CentOS, Red Hat and the CPE team. We might not hit all of them perfectly, there might be some trade offs in functionality but we hope to transparently show what those trade offs would be and why we take a certain path. > > > Cheers, > > Dan > > ¹: Yeah, I know that this is actually the tricky part to find this > someone… > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > -- Leigh Griffin Engineering Manager Red Hat Waterford <https://www.redhat.com/> Communications House Cork Road, Waterford City lgrif...@redhat.com M: +353877545162 IM: lgriffin @redhatjobs <https://twitter.com/redhatjobs> redhatjobs <https://www.facebook.com/redhatjobs> @redhatjobs <https://instagram.com/redhatjobs> <https://red.ht/sig>
