Thanks Matthew, we are already using GitLab and I have committed to setting up an ARDC
public GitLab instance for the membership. It is on my TODO list…

That is why I suggested gitlab, which is open source as an alternative to
github.

Sorry if I did make myself clear before: That account was setup a while
ago to redevelop the Portal code, the hope was that we would get a few
people collaborating, but it never happened, I uploaded the initial commit
with the outline of a Laravel framework but in spite of a few interested
comments at the start, nothing happened. I eventually deleted it as it was
serving no purpose. I have now removed the account as well to avoid any
confusion.
The ARDC board prefers open source, self hosted solutions. So using
GitHub, which is now owned by Microsoft, is not really an option.

No, that’s not what I said: The GitLab repo we currently have is used

Yes there are: The current GitLab repo is mostly used for ...
So to clarify, the Portal and other 44net *infrastructure* code is now
mixed up in the same git tree/repo as stuff from the *grant-making*
side of the business? I am
setting up a new, separate repo where members can deposit
code snippets and other useful information. Watch this space, it
won’t be long…
Okay.
Jeff Parrish and Pierre Martel both made a good points though, ...
that the path of least resistance/effort would be to revert back, to
using an already extant Github account:
https://github.com/amprnet
and to restore the deleted AMPR projects there and actually *use* it.
Chris: Would have be a simpler solution?
