No, Github uses open source but their software itself is not open source.
I use Gitlab for my personal and work projects (it's a self-hosted Github clone, and I think they have a cloud-hosted version now) because Github's not open source and Github Enterprise (self-hosted, and the only sane choice if you don't want your team to suffer
from the random outages which plague Github) is prohibitively expensive if you're not a huge company. :(
Thankfully, there are a variety of options out there for source code repositories with enough choices in regards to "freedom" in its various guises that one should feel quite ok with choosing whichever one they feel is best for their code.
Also, thanks for putting the Gophernicus repo online for others to poke at. :)

Personally I think gophernicus is great. But also, at a personal level, I chose gitorious because it happens to be (from https://gitorious.org/about): "Gitorious provides open source infrastructure for hosting open source projects that use Git." I think this makes an important difference. I do not think github is FLOSS as far as I know :) Have a nice day! -- chals http://chalsattack.com _______________________________________________ Gopher-Project mailing list Gopher-Project@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gopher-project | ||
