[postgis-devel] PSC Vote: Github or Gitea (OSGeo Git) or stay on SVN

[Darafei "Komяpa" Praliaskouski]

I'm not that frequent PostGIS contributor or a maintainer.

Most time I'm interacting with its code is when something is not covered in
docs (like O() of the functions to get idea of how long the query will be
running, or details of estimator, etc.).
I just read it on Github repo, as search and code highlighting are good
enough there.
Sometimes I see a logical error and fix it right away in the github web
editor, making a PR and looking at tests passing or not.

I think process of moving from git to svn let half of our parallel
aggregates patch fall through the cracks, and I'm not even sure if it's
completely there, as it's not a "merged PR", but a diff applied by
maintainer. I also had issues creating OSGeo account, so a couple of
tickets were created on trac by my IRC reports by other good people.

Github as a main home for postgis would be much easier for me, as postgis
is not the only piece of software I'm looking into.
