Github being a US company was a point of contention back when we converted to git. But because of how git works, we are not bound to Github. The repos are also mirrored in Canada and by everyone who clones one. Most of the onus is on Github - they can't let people from restricted countries do many things, but that's not really our problem. Our code is not bound by Github or US law. So as a matter of law, you don't have to do anything different. You're not directly contributing to restricted countries. -- Tino Didriksen On Tue, 7 Apr 2020 at 14:45, Samuel Sloniker <[email protected]> wrote: > I was just thinking about the US export laws.
