Not only the flexibility, but the autonomy. Hosting the source code on systems either paid for by PSF funds or donated to the PSF will allow all decisions about how the VCS repositories are administrated to be made without deferring to the repository provider as a separate entity. Or, more briefly: it's better for the PSF to be as much in control of the decisions about what happens to the VCS repositories as possible. -- \ “We have to go forth and crush every world view that doesn't | `\ believe in tolerance and free speech.” —David Brin | _o__) | Ben Finney _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
