[Xymon] Migrating away from SourceForge?

[J.C. Cleaver]

Interesting.

Some of these Debian patches in the set definitely do need to be applied;
I'll see if I can get some of these in today.

On the larger question of moving to something like Github, I think the
question more comes down to the various tool sets on each site. SF has the
dev mailing list and is the site home page... If we just wanted git
itself, I believe there's a git module for SF which allows us to use that
for submissions (much like the original flip from CVS to SVN).

The SF re-packaging controversy wasn't really relevant to us, so  IMO,
moving to Github would be more because it's a popular place to be hosting
code at than too much else.


Henrik has the final call regardless :)
