Not sure if there are folks who are on -dev but not -users, so
forwarding it here anyway.
Cheers,

Subject: RFC: Move SystemImager development to GitHub
To: sisuite-users <sisuite-***@lists.sourceforge.net>
Hi all:
I have recently discussed with Brian Finley the possibility of moving
SystemImager development from SVN hosted at systemimager.org to Git
hosted at GitHub and we both agreed that it's a good idea.
I have also consulted the team from SARA who is currently working on
the SALI fork of SystemImager, and they are also onboard.
The idea would be to have the source code repository hosted at GitHub
owned by user 'systemimager' which will be publicly available and
anybody would then be free to fork the repository and work on
features/enhancements in their own scratch space. A good example is
the current SALI fork. If we host it at GitHub, it would make the
changes that were done to mainline SystemImager much clearer/easy to
track and also allow the SystemImager team to cherry pick part or all
of the commits back to the "official" release. We will also be able
to get more exposure hosting our project at GitHub.
What do the general community think about this?
Thanks,
Bernard
