Agreed. I'm aware that this was a read only version as my migration to self hosted Gitea consisted in reading old StHub repositories and writing new versions on Gitea, using GitMigration, while learning Iceberg... Now I'm reading books and seeing series on this forced coding break. Trying to see the bright side ;-). >> Well... time for a forced break on Pharo usage as I'm unable to >> use/migrate previous build stuff. > But, except for established CI build pipelines, I fail to see how this would > affect normal developers.

I was working on migrating Grafoscopio from 7.x to 8.x and from StHub to Gitea and building a new hobby project related with Table Top Role Playing (TTRPG) powered by Pharo (news when is more mature). At some point I needed TaskIt with futures provided in the bug fix proposed to Santiago by Norbert. But I was unable to load the issue fix branch on 7.x. So I said, what the heck lets inmerse on 8.x, using use Grafoscopio there and let's migrate all the remaining pre-requisites for this, so I can also ask for support in the official platform. That was when the StHub down hit me since Friday. But I'm catching on inspiring series and reading for the TTRPG project... so it has been a good weekend anyway :-). Thanks for Iceberg and all the work you do on infrastructure behind Pharo. As Susan Leigh Star[1] said, infrastructure is invisible until it fails. That doesn't mean that I don't value the work behind it. Cheers, Offray [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susan_Leigh_Star
