Hi, Eh, finally replying to e-mails. Was an online hermit for the last few days.
I totally agree with moving to git and have no objection with GitHub. But the one part of the question you didn't answer is that Zakk had some reason for moving Doom3 from GitHub in the first place. Maybe he didn't like a big corporation controlling his repositories or something like that??? I guess what I want to know is what his problem was with GitHub and what made him change his mind. And I guess you are right, I am mostly curious about this because of ioDoom3. I don't want to put in a lot of time improving the server if we are just going to move to GitHub soon anyway. I guess I'll ask Zakk about that one-on-one. (Plus this is the wrong list for that.) Thanks for your input Ryan. Laters, eviljoel On Wed, Jan 2, 2013 at 11:01 PM, Ryan C.
