[Owncloud] Gitorious vs Github

[Jan-Christoph Borchardt]

There being more important topics from your point of view does not
make discussing the move less important.

If thebuggenie requires so much configuration (and I bet you don’t
mean the interface, or having a single-sign-on so not everyone needs
to get yet another account) then it most probably is not the right
tool for getting actual work done. After using it several times I for
one am seriously annoyed by it and really hate using it. And I know
I’m not the only one.

If the bikeshed isn’t usable, there’s no need to discuss over what
color to paint it.
