They've already done that. https://github.com/FeministSoftwareFoundation/C-plus-Equality https://github.com/FeministSoftwareFoundation/C-plus-Equalit... However, they continue to host a mirror of it: https://github.com/ErisBlastar/cplusequality https://github.com/ErisBlastar/cplusequality Not sure why they didn't allow the "official" one but allow the mirror. Guess they just wanted the ability to say they took it down for PR purposes.
