<p>Hi Denis,</p>
<p>We had a look at hosted solutions (for Gitlab and for Redmine) -
but most of them had been too expensive for our case - they have a
limit on the number of users that can be associated with a
project, or other limits like file sizes/total project size, etc.<br>
</p>
<p>Running our own gitlab instance would have been an option, but no
one volunteered to take on the task of permanently maintaining the
infrastructure, e.g. dealing with security
issues/patching/upgrading, spammers, deal with the evil guys out
on the web. Maybe if we can find someone who wants to take on the
task (ideally more than one person), we could reconsider to use a
self-hosted gitlab.<br>
</p>
Note that the new Redmine instance has some integration with github.
Jürgen, Richard or Pirmin can tell you the details.<br>
<br>
What is so bad with Redmine? And exactly what integration with
github are you missing? Maybe Redmine can do this integration.<br>

<br>
The issue tracker was discussed almost 1.5h at the board
meeting - and<br>
it wasn't a clear and unanimous decision. Some board members
(including<br>
me) also changed their minds during the discussion. Apparently
not all<br>
core devs were happy with the quite limited filtering and
structuring<br>
options that github offers. The issue tracker is certainly
quite<br>
limited, compared to other issue tracker offerings. Offering
only labels<br>
is quite limited. In addition, migrating all the existing
tickets from<br>
Redmine to Github turned out to be non-trivial - and we don't
want to<br>
loose the old issues.<br>
<br>
Finally, it is probably good that we are in control of the
issues and<br>
that it runs on free software. The board knows that not all
people are<br>
happy with this decision but one cannot make everyone happy
... we hope<br>
that the "unhappy" people can still live with the renewed (and
faster)<br>
Redmine.<br>
<br>
The issues are migrated to the newest Redmine version and on a
dedicated<br>
machine rented by <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://QGIS.ORG" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">QGIS.ORG</a>
to ensure good performance. This should make<br>
dealing with issues much more pleasant and more performant.<br>
<br>
Big thanks to Jürgen, Richard and Pirmin for dealing with the
Redmine<br>
migration.<br>
