Thank you, Michał, for preparing an official guide from all the spread |
| 14 |
informations. I think it is important for Gentoo to have such GLEP. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I think we should not bundle GLEPs to companies, but keep it more |
| 17 |
abstract. The GLEP should still be valid, if we do not use github |
| 18 |
anymore. Many large repositories have shut down in the last years. Even |
| 19 |
after years we have not fixed all ebuilds [1]. We must be prepared, to |
| 20 |
loose github very suddenly and should not hope that it will end with an |
| 21 |
announcement years before. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Hence, I suggest to write the GLEP without naming "github" a single time. |
