The previous council wanted Infra to move it, because nobody with access |
| 10 |
to the repogirl location was responsive, and there was NO work on the |
| 11 |
repogirl tree between July and October. I couldn't even get an SVN dump |
| 12 |
despite my requests, I had to extract each SVN rev manually to create |
| 13 |
the git tree. |

So folk want: |
| 20 |
- on gentoo infra somewhere |
| 21 |
- some non-devs need commit access |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
I'm not going to get involved with the politics of it this time, but I |
| 24 |
will offer what I perceive to be a technical solution (if it causes a |
| 25 |
flamewar, don't involve me, I really don't have time for more |
| 26 |
flamewars). |

My offer is to make it one of the Git repos on the overlays2 system |
| 29 |
(Git-via-SSH). That fills both requirements listed above. It's identical |
| 30 |
to what is underway for Uberlord's baselayout2 hosting. |
