Re: [jdt-dev] Foundation Code and Issue services reminder

Stephan, Ed,

I prefer Gitlab MR process to Github; however I do use both.
I also prefer the significantly more complete CI/CD processes along with DAST/SAST integration and tools. 

I do have some bandwidth, so I can assist on setting up either.

Stephan,

No, it's not just you.  I would have hoped for a full plan where all these questions have clear answers up front, rather than hopefully after the fact.  And what bothers me most is that every project will have the same questions, again and again...

I'm not even sure the exact process for PRs, and if you don't know what those are, they're pull requests.   At this point it seems more much important to reach the destination than it is to have documentation, rules, or guidelines:

https://www.eclipse.org/lists/platform-dev/msg03408.html

I'm also not sure the pros and cons of using Eclipse's gitlab versus github, or whether there was any discussion about that choice.   I'm pretty sure though that all the cool kids are on github and they already know what needs to be done there because they're quite familiar with it. 
   I just hope that all our own cool kids will now have time to review all the cool contributions from all the new cool kids who will think Eclipse is cool because it's at github and that our cool kids don't spend all their time on just their own cool things which are now so much cooler on github.  Hopefully the cool kids will even document the new processes we're supposed to follow, though maybe documentation and processes are totally uncool...

Regards,
Ed
