| tbrowder | if i want to work on raku.land prs, how do i do that using github? | 13:11 | |
| lizmat | you don't, you'd need to work on gitlab | 13:13 | |
| ? | |||
| tbrowder | hm, ok. i looked at lots of places comparing gitlab, github, etc. the casual survey said github is best for FOSS because of ease of use for helpers. i do think raku.land would be best if moved to github. my 2 cents | 13:55 | |
| and no offense to its developer, it's an important project but it needs love to be more useful | 13:56 | ||
| for instance, dingbats like moi need some way to have bad modules in zef/fez flagged as such. that should be relatively easy to do with zef/raku.land interface | 13:59 | ||
| lizmat | re github vs gitlab: some people do not want to be involved with Github anymore because of MS | 14:04 | |
| and we have to accept that | |||
| tbrowder | lizmat, we don't accept behavior we don't like, so, in some way, what is the difference? imho, we should be trying to unify the community to grow use of raku. splintering into little-used infra doesn't help. | 14:42 | |
| i love raku. i want to see if grow. | |||
| *it | |||
| the avg age of users is not decreasing | 14:43 | ||
| lizmat | true, but we're all volunteers, and if a volunteer decides to open source their project on a different place than that we're used to | 14:44 | |
| there's not a lot we can do but to kindly ask them if they'd be willing to move | |||
| and that question has been asked in the past, and the answer was no | 14:45 | ||
| so we will have to either live with it, or set up a similar service of your own | |||
| I chose live with it :-) | |||
| tbrowder | sigh..., ok then, thnx | 14:46 | |
| jjatria | FWIW, I think I'm on the record as saying that I don't really care where the code is hosted, but that it would be a pity if we got to a point where things _had_ to be hosted on a specific platform for them to work | 16:43 | |
| In that sense, I'm more against monopolies than I am against MS | |||
| But if there's a feature someone would want to implement on RL, and they prefer the GH interface, I'd be happy to review a GH fork and make sure the code ends up where it needs to be, even if we don't move away from GL | 16:44 | ||
| coleman | GitLab even lets you log in with a GitHub account. It's quite accessible. | 17:43 | |
| jjatria: if you haven't already, a GitLab->GitHub read-only push fork could aid discoverability. Then, if you are willing, people could indeed fork that and you could review the diffs if you so choose. But to be honest, I think we are too concentrated on GitHub, but it is hard to unwind, because we use GitHub authorization groups to govern some important stuff. | 17:45 | ||
| Actually, a pull-fork from GitHub might be easier... | 17:47 | ||
| Ah it looks like GitHub doesn't do automatic mirroring | 17:54 | ||
