Well, what exactly does copilot have to do with anything? If the |
| 8 |
concern is about copilot "misappropriating" Gentoo's code, then it |
| 9 |
seems we agree that moving off of Github won't change anything. |

The social contract talks about how "Gentoo will never depend upon |
| 12 |
[proprietary software]." It doesn't mention anything about Gentoo not |
| 13 |
enabling it/etc. In fact our policies allow proprietary software to |
| 14 |
be in our repository (obviously with restrictions on mirroring/etc). |
| 15 |
Some argue that this is enabling proprietary software, but even if so |
| 16 |
we're not breaking any promises. |
