You're welcome to take a 100% philosophical stance; I applaud you for it. (I understand Richard Stallman is so adamant about not using *any* non-free code - software or firmware - that he restricts himself to a tiny selection of laptops that have free BIOSes.) Personally, I believe practicality beats purity in computing philosophy as well as API design, and I'll happily let GitHub carry my software. What's the worst that can happen? I have to switch to somewhere else, and I lose the issue tracker and pull requests. In the case of CPython, they wouldn't even be lost - they're (to be) backed up. In the meantime, I'm on a well-polished platform with a large number of users. The same cannot be said for *many* other hosts, even if they do use exclusively free software. ChrisA
