We can always fork, the issue is &quot;should we host it on our servers ?&quot;, and 
&quot;should we do it now ?&quot;. 

A side question is &quot;should we let anybody use the ressources or not ?&quot;
( ie, anybody with a identity account could do anything or not ). I would be
in favor of that, but my own experience with i18n where the team decided to have 
people join local team before having access show that contributers may have a different
view. 

So we can propose some stuff, but it is up to the developpers to see what they would prefer
( even if not formally said, everybody seems to agree on git ).

And the issue with gitorious is the complexity of the deployment, so maybe we could
settle for a simplified approach as a start, like the one used on freedesktop 
or kde ( shell script based ). 

&gt;<i> &gt; So someone needs to see exactly what is needed, with people that will use

</I>&gt;<i> &gt; what we should use.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> We've got to decide at some points too. Or we will still be at this
</I>&gt;<i> point in 6 months.
</I>
Even if we decide on those points, we still have a good TODO list, so the question
will then become : &quot;what is more urgent ?&quot;. 

I did gitorious testing, and on a scale from 1 &quot;deploy rsync&quot; to 10 &quot;deploy buildsystem&quot;, 
it will rank as &quot;12&quot;. I like the idea, and the challenge, but maybe we could find a better
deal by starting with a tradeoff.
