Consider moving Trans Dim into GFSC GitHub #434

Closed kimadactyl closed 1 month ago

Use case

This started out as more GIs thing but if GFSC are going to be the maintainers and project leads on TransDim, I think it makes sense to have it hosted and run from the GFSC GitHub repo. This means that we will have proper control over permissions and github groups and generally give us more flexibility with getting volunteer support and the like, and also means we don't have to go hunting for it when we are trying to find the repo.

@katjam - can we do this when we go live? i think this is a must given we're moving more to volunteer labour. we can't be adding randoms to GI's github team!

katjam commented 1 month ago

It's pretty easy to move. Everything should come across when we transfer from one org to the other, but of course no change is without uncertainty.

Couple things to think about: 1- do we need the charity status for any github features we use 2- if outside folks want to contribute they should maybe be doing it through remote forks anyway

kimadactyl commented 1 month ago

GFSC has a charity acct too now :)

agree on the remote forks. main point is we should be controlling it with GFSC permissions not GI ones.

the only thing im worried about is cloudflare builds getting confused when we do it!

katjam commented 1 month ago

I'm pretty sure cloudflare will "just work".

Nice GFSC got classed as a charity, how'd you manage that?

kimadactyl commented 1 month ago

oh its nonprofits and pht has an asset lock and is ltd by guarantee so we count :)

kimadactyl commented 1 month ago

actually shall we just move it now? i think the sooner the better so we discover any issues asap

katjam commented 1 month ago

Yep - go for it.

kimadactyl commented 1 month ago

OK done!
