For me its not even a question of willing to contribute. The project I am working on will need convenient ways of distributing libraries and Github was always on the top of my list, �so I was planning on working on this anyway. But yes I will start a new thread for discussing this.�

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion. I am happy you are excited about the promise of GitHub.

The only thing left to do is to make it happen, and I kindly invite you to join the others interested in precisely making it happen. Just send a message around showing your availability to code in this direction, and I am sure that people will point you to what is left to do.

Doru

If anyone cares about my personal opinion, and I hope not many people do , I think it would be better for Pharoers to embrace Github. Not because smalltalkhub is more prone to crashes , not because it has much less features, but because of the amount of exposer it can give to our community.�

I think that if more and more Github users, and there are tons of them out there, starting seeing Pharo project popping around like mushrooms , they may ask the question "What the hell is Pharo" and maybe just maybe this bring more people to our side that may try Pharo , love it and want to help us make it more awesome.�

So if we could make committing to Gihub as convenient as committing to �Smalltalkhub then its a matter of porting projects to it. Imagine what would happen if one of those great smalltalkhub projects became the project of the month for Github.�

I suspect that the problem is that a database (Mongo DB) is involved so that before each (potentially automatic) restart a human has to make sure that the database is not corrupt. If the application/webapp and the DB are really very well separated then that should be less of a problem.

That being said, the situation should definitively be improved ;-)
