Hi Chris,
I don't know if it is part of the portal but the whois service is very often down still after like 2 years since we (me and a friend) started telling you about it. So clearly the code isn't perfect and would benefit from contributions.
Regardless of if there are contributions to it from others, I still think having the source code open and public (under some open source license) would be very good.

ARDC do have a self hosted GitLab server, the board and the TAC/GAC are using it for document sharing and so on. I have just had a quick chat with Rosy and ARDC would be happy to setup an “official” public GitLab instance if the membership would find it useful? So I guess the question is, what would folk use it for?
@Paul - You are right, I did setup a public repo on GitHub a while back as a platform to get the Portal code re-developed, but nothing ever came of it, so I deleted it. There was nothing really of interest there, just a basic Laravel framework that I had started working on.

In the case that there was any reduction in service from the GitHub / Microsoft end, the whole repo (including branches) could be pushed from anybody’s local clone to any other git provider (including self-hosted) with no data loss and no need to interact with GitHub, so there should be no issue there.
Opening up the existing GitHub repo sounds like a good idea :)

Ok. No problem with that.
This doesn't change the fact that it is an external site that is not under our control. And it is owned by Microsoft which means it could change... It was just an idea. No pressure here.

Marius,
I feel like you have not read the pricing information on the GitHub
website.
It is clear under the "Compare features" section that an organization can have unlimited private repositories on the free plan.

Yes it's free for public repositories.
But it is not free for private repositories and not under our control.

Hi Marius
GitHub is free unlimited public/private repos, unlimited collaborators.

Beauty of git is there is no provider lock-in. Everyone has the full repo and can push it (retaining the full history) wherever they like.

Hi everyone, Since a lot of people do all kind of development work directed towards the ampr and the 44 network, wouldn't it make sense to have some kind of repository/version tracking for this work? Of course, there is Github, as a public place to do this, but wouldn't it be nice to have our own Git repository, which should be underARDC
control, where we could track our stuff, from code development and scripts, up to all the host and service lists? This could even be a topic for the grants committee... Costs are minimal, with only some effort towards the initial setup (Git is essentially free, with maybe a small payed support in setupfrom
Atlassian if needed). Afterwards it is self-sustaining. 73s, Marius, YO2LOJ _________________________________________ 44Net mailing list 44Net@mailman.ampr.org <mailto:44Net@mailman.ampr.org> https://mailman.ampr.org/mailman/listinfo/44net <https://mailman.ampr.org/mailman/listinfo/44net>
