They can turn this off at any moment, leaving you with no way to get
your data out.
Yep. This is the case for any project using non free tools...
In fact it's also the case if you _are_ using 100% free tools too, as
someone could say "sorry, we no longer want to host this and have
turned off everything".
So, I guess you could run a pagure.io instance locally and sync it to a
remote one or something. But then it's up to you to back it up and
such.
My point is that "exposing our code to a much wider group of
developers" is not a valid argument for using GitHub instead of
Fedora Hosted, because one should be able to expect contributors to
Fedora infrastructure code to sign up for a FAS account to contribute.
Sure, that was just one part of using github, not the entire reason.
Also, I wasn't someone who made that decision.
Also, we are moving bodhi to pagure.io soon.
So, I think this is my last reply here. ;)
