Hello,

I just want to add, that my comments about GitHub being easier to manage were entirely theoretical as I am one of those not involved in managing the servers.  I merely added it as it is one of the many (perceived at least) advantages of a cloud deployment - and someone did ask what the advantages were.

It might be that GitHub is entirely inappropriate for Kamailio, but I don't think it does any harm for someone to ask these kinds of questions from time-to-time as we are in an ever-changing landscape in terms of what is on offer out there.  I'd like to think the decision not to use something that is currently considered to be the "best-of-breed" option by the open-source community is a deliberate one.

Regards,

Peter

git is distrubuted system by design, so we can have it in many places.
It is about who is doing the work and administration in long term. If we
get a group of people committed to do it, we can have a middle way for a
while. Have a clone on github that you syncronyze back and forth with
current repository and see what people prefer to use over the time, then
we can decide which is the main repo and eventually keep the other as
backup.

We're doing it the other way around at Sipwise: we've our own internal git server with the standard web interface etc., but it's configured to act as kind of a "master" to our github account. Everytime you push something to the internal repo, the github repo gets automatically synced and overwritten.

I like the github interface and everything around it, but it's only used for convenience to have more pretty interfaces and some basic external bug tracker and people have the possibility to send pull requests and everything, but in the end the real work is done on the internal git server.

So it doesn't have to be a all-or-nothing approach as you correctly pointed out, and we could still stick with git.sip-router.org as our main server and just hook up github as a "slave" for people preferring that interface to not be solely dependent on the availability of github.
