s/GitHub/git.puredata.info/

i don't think that jamie's point was to propose GitHub, but rather a
central point that would reference the various repositories.
it could be a gitweb instance running on http://git.puredata.info/ with
a single admin user.


That’s correct, I just used GitHub in example as it had been mentioned earlier in the thread.

(Although... I do prefer GitHub for my own projects as I find the UX to be far better than sf.net. I’m not proposing we use it for Pd, as clearly there are other factors and priorities to consider.)

best,
