Hosting the original youtube-dl sources on salsa?
Dear people,
As many of you may know, the RIAA issued a resquest for GitHub to take down
the youtube-dl repository.
The tree had some fixes that were *not* in the latest release that I
uploaded a few days ago (I am the maintainer of youtube-dl in Debian, just
to make things clear).
Since the tree was taken down (and, to boot, of the 18 forks listed in the
takedown request, mine was explicitly listed), I fear that me uploading the
lastest tree to GitHub is asking for trouble.
Given this situation, can I upload a backup of youtube-dl to salsa under my
user account? I already maintain the packaging of youtube-dl in a different
repository that is both on GitHub and on salsa. Should I take it down from
salsa?
If these are not the appropriate mailing lists to send this to, please point
me to better places. I was in a hurry and I decided to send this as soon as
I found out places that seemed suitable.
Thanks for any help and support,
Rogério Brito.

The RIAA seems to be targeting the most vulnerable and leat likely to defend themselves, otherweise they would be targeting those who upload content violating copyright laws instead on free software maintainers. (Also, there is YouTube Premium which allows for downloading any video ypu like, so in the view of the RIAA, why is that acceptable?). IANAL but as a project member I strongly encourage you and the project defending your right to produce free software alternatives, given that commercial software doing the same thing seems to be ok! -nik
Re: [nm.debian.org] Front Desk members and application approvals
Hi, > in order to allow more people to process the usual routine of > non-controversial applications, we are now allowing Front Desk members > to approve applications without the need for a Debian Account Manager. in case I missed it, what is the background of this decision? Are there so many NM processes that DAM cannot catch up? Will Debian soond have so many legitimte project members that all the piled up work get smagically done by all those people? Thanks for clarification, Nik
Re: Hosting the original youtube-dl sources on salsa?
I though I saw something about it being reinstated but without the..
rolling encryption I think they called it.
Obviously you would want to confirm and qualify that but it might change
things.
