Migrating to GitHub #354

Hi !

Google Code will be closing its doors soon (by august 2015, our repository will 
be read-only). I suggest using GitHub instead, which is a nice replacement to 
Google Code. We can even integrate it with some CI software such as Travis.

(I've created the 400plus organisation on GitHub, just to prevent someone from 
stealing the name)

Well, that was fast, many thanks... I had just read the announcement, when your 
message arrived!

I have joined GitHub, and my username is "eduperez" (I am completely new to 
GitHub, so please forgive me if I say something stupid). I see there are a 
couple of "400plus" projects there; one seems to be yours, it contains all the 
source code and releases, but no issues; the other one was uploaded by "kautsu" 
a few hours before, and it only contains open issues. There is also the 
"400plus" organization that you created, and it is still empty.

So, I guess the next step is to add the current developers to the organization 
(you already have my username), and then upload a repository there (shall we 
create a new one? shall we use yours?), the wiki pages (does GitHub support 
that?), released files, issues, ...

I see (https://code.google.com/p/support-tools/wiki/GitHubExporterFAQ and 
https://help.github.com/articles/transferring-a-repository/) that the correct 
procedure is to create a "user repository" and then migrate it to the 
organization.

I will create now a repository, and do the migration there; seems like I have 
some work ahead...

Yeah, I've read the message few hours ago...
Edu, the best would be (IMO) to create a repo in your user in GH, this should 
be the master, since you're the maintainer. Anyone could then just fork from 
you.
I haven't read the FAQs provided by google, but it should be easy to migrate.
I have few repos in GH and I will fork 400plus from your user, once you put the 
code in your repo.
I'm not sure if I can be of any help, since I haven't touched a camera for 2 
years already. I even sold my 400D (gifted actually), but I still hold my IDA 
files, so for some stuff I could be of some help, I guess...
Anyway, I'm still emotionally and morally connected to this camera and this 
project for sure...
