| Hi Everyone, 
 I have two important infrastructure requests for uDig to plan for in
    order to settle into the infrastructure @ LocationTech.
 
 The first one relates to the web site (
    
    http://udig.refractions.net/).
    For vendor neutrality, it is important to host an important project
    resource at the Foundation. We can make space available for this as
    well as other infrastructure such as a 2nd git repository, automated
    syncing, etc. to facilitate.
 
 The other one, perhaps a bigger deal, is with regards to JIRA. There
    are a number of reasons for why JIRA is not OK including vendor
    neutrality, but also eclipse accounts, terms of use, privacy policy,
    etc. uDig will need to move over to using Bugzilla. I suspect JIRA
    is as popular with uDig as it is with other projects so I am
    grateful for the patience & understanding here.
 
 On a different note, hosting uDig code from Github, from the
    LocationTech organization, is OK and the plan for uDig. As an
    update, we have some new automation coming soon that will
    automatically manage committers, CLA's, and similar.
 
 Regards,
 
 Andrew
