I use fossil for self hosting code. It gives me what I need without
getting in my way.

Hi,
I would prefer to continue discussions here instead of github. I
use it for almost nothing and seems pretty dangerous the
centralization of infrastructure in private hands. The ironies of
GitHub centralizing a descentralized infrastructure and making
developers to rely in a tool they can't not change are explaned in
detail at We’re in a brave, new post open source world here:

So would be really good to keep this forum open for those who have
to have something to say about Leo, but doesn't understand, like
or use GitHub a lot. I think that these easy ways to belong to a
community should be kept open.
Cheers,

Several high-profile projects now use GitHub their issue

*all*
discussions.
There are substantial benefits to doing so:
4. And it's possible to change the name of the issue,
unlike here.
5. It's easy to categorize and prioritize discussions.
I'm sure there are more benefits. Anyone see any problems?

Personally I'd be fine with that, but I think it will be hard
to get
more than 50% adoption, so things will still be split. E-mail
lets
people pick their own environment, rather than requiring use
of the
GitHub web interface. Well, maybe that's not a requirement seeing
you can subscribe to all issues and get them in your email,
but I think
you'd at least have to start the thread with the GitHub web
interface.
Looking at it just now, it doesn't seem to handle nested
quoted replies
properly. In fact quoting in replies isn't really obvious at
all. You
select the text you want to reply to (can't see how to skip
this when
you want to quote the whole message) and hit `r`. But any quoting
already present in the selecting text is lost.
Another drawback is that people who aren't subscribed to all
issues as
you and I are won't see them on the mailing list - fine if GitHub
replaces the mailing list, but I don't think it will or
should, for the
same reasons I don't think we should insist on using git to
get Leo
(other than version releases). Use of GitHub is by no means
universal
even among programmers, and Leo has a lot of non-programmer users.
So... it would work for me, quoting issues aside, but not sure
it's a
one stop solution. OTOH in the past people asking questions /
starting
discussions of possible bugs on GitHub have been told to not open
non-bug issues without discussing in the forum first, I think
it's a
step forward if we just respond to those threads on GitHub -
it's not
just for bugs... which is I guess your original point :-)
Cheers -Terry
