Hello,

It is our intention to use the Apache GitHub.  I have been using Bitbucket for a few years and have resisted moving to GitHub.  I like Bitbucket only because I know how to use it (My favorite tools are always the ones I know how to use).  But GitHub is the plan of record if NuttX is accepted as a podling.

I do have some question about the transition.  NuttX is a very active project with a large user base.  We have to both (1) modify the code base to conform to licensing and other requirements, but also (2) continue to support the community with quality releases. I imagine that it will take a month or two to get the GitHub repositories ready for prime time.  During that time, I think that the Bitbucket/BSD repositories should continue with business as usual with changes pulled into the Apache Github until such time that support can transition seamlessly to GitHub.

Does that seem reasonable?  We may be somewhat different from other podlings because of the state and maturity of the code.

Hi,

Over on the google groups I saw some comments about the use of GitHub. While 
most ASF projects have moved that way it not a requirement to use. You could 
use svn [1] or git at Apache and be hosted on the ASF servers.  You can even be 
hosted at the ASF and on GitHub [1]. Committers are not forced to use GitHub if 
they don't want to. Staying at bitbucket is probably not an option, but you 
could talk to Infra to see if it was possible.

Thanks,
Justin
