Pardon for the late input, missed the dynamic of the people behind this idea<br>
(and actually expected it would be shot down, at least to me it seems not a<br>
good idea to add value to a proprietary platform by also adding our source<br>
code there).<br>
<br>
Can we please only mirror those projects whose maintainers are okay with the<br>
added workload due to another public interface which allows interaction from<br>
3rd-party? Too many people will not get that this is only a mirror, even if<br>
you put it in bold there. Or worse, not accept it is a mirror, because their<br>
time is more valueable than the time of the maintainers of course.<br>

I have no time (and actually also no interest) to care for people poking via<br>
github (incl. the time needed to redirect them to the real official KDE<br>
infrastructure and any bad vibrations because having to argue why I/we do not<br>
support github really). Other people might have that time and interest, so<br>
their decision.<br>
But I don't. I joined KDE for some reason and am doing my FLOSS software<br>
development here, because of certain values.<br>
Same would be true for <a href="http://sourceforge.net" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">sourceforge.net</a>, <a href="http://gitlab.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">gitlab.com</a>, <a href="http://code.google.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">code.google.com</a> (okay,<br>
dead) or whereever else some people think we should mirror because it's where<br>
"the people" are currently.<br>
<br>
So as maintainer I would like to have at least the repos of Okteta,<br>
libkoralle, cagibi removed from the official KDE github page.</blockquote> <br></div><div class="gmail_quote">There shouldn't be any extra workload.<br></div><div class="gmail_quote">Can we at least wait until we see if it's a problem before we try and solve it?<br><br></div><div class="gmail_quote">David<br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><br><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
