Hi Thomas,

How do you want to handle permissions? So there is a super user on salsa
who can commit to any repository there? I would be well at least
slightly surprised to see such changes.

Fine with me, strongly recommend git - anyway, it is already a fact that
it is the de-facto standard, so this is a non-argument. My argument is
for those developers who might have other ways/interests.

Why? All the data is in the git commits and tags. I don't use anything
else there, in particular not issues etc. 
So what is your concern besides "religious" github hating?

> anything else. I'm really bothered by Github, like a few of us are.

So be it, but don't put *your* bothering onto others. I am bothered by a
lot of things, too, and I don't ask you to be bothered the same way.

Thanks

Norbert
