Just to be clear, I am not talking about a wholesale migration. I will just
simply not use Trac for new tickets and will suggest that others do the same.
Instead, issues in the appropriate repo on Github will be created. If somebody
cares enough about a TT, it will get migrated to a Github issue.
I don't want to hear strawman arguments about how I don't care about all the
hardwork that people have put into our TTs. I have created and cagecleaned many
TT's. But the simple fact is that we, Parrot hackers, need to refactor our
community infrastructure if we hope to continue.
"Do what you have always done, get what you have always gotten".
Parrot is losing developers and quickly becoming even more irrelevant, and I
refuse to just rearrange furniture on the deck of a sinking ship.
Trac actively discourages new developers, since we have to lock it down from
Trac spam. Github actively encourages new developers via all the social
features. If we want to continue, we need to fully embrace Github.
