[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [General] Microsoft acquiring GitHub

[Alan Meekins]

I strongly support ensuring that our tools and processes enable users of all public and private Git solutions. Which I do believe we presently do have decent support on a per-package basis. Though the core of ROS is in practice tied heavily to GitHub I don't immediately see much making it impossible to move if there were the will to do so.

That being said I do support minimizing conflict and remaining in GitHub today.

I however, very much DO NOT trust Microsoft as a former employee of several years and encourage an exit plan should anything change.
