What happened over at Gitea? New drama? I'm ootl
- forgotpwd16 4y agoA takeover was announced a week ago (https://blog.gitea.io/2022/10/open-source-sustainment-and-the-future-of-gitea/ https://blog.gitea.io/2022/10/open-source-sustainment-and-th... ; discussed in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33339421 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33339421). This got a negative response by the community (https://gitea-open-letter.coding.social/ https://gitea-open-letter.coding.social/ ; discussed in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33372471 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33372471) but the owners disregarded them (https://blog.gitea.io/2022/10/a-message-from-lunny-on-gitea-ltd.-and-the-gitea-project/ https://blog.gitea.io/2022/10/a-message-from-lunny-on-gitea-... ; discussed in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33394280 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33394280). The reason behind the response being that Gitea was a community-led project with an electionary process. A fork is eminent.
