Thank you for the recommendation, that’s very kind. I’ll submit this later today.
I did not know that ANSOL has a Gitea instance, I added a link to https://git.ansol.org/ in the pad
The gitea instance is fairly new (early 2022). We used to have a phabricator instance, but managing it was not easy and its usage wasn’t as obvious to those used to other forges, so we ended up moving. We considered gitlab but its open-core nature pushed us to gitea. When proposing the migration, I did mention that self hosting without open signups would decrease the number of drive by contributions, and that it was being fixed by the nlnet grant, so this is all connected.
ANSOL publishes quarterly newsletters with a summary of our activities (the gitea release is buried somewhere in there), but it’s in portuguese: Noticias | ANSOL - Associação Nacional para o Software Livre
