From 102f08cd2807e0e664064f118a66b0c974c43c0e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: jvoisin Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2025 16:18:52 +0200 Subject: Switch the project from 0xacab to github While the folks running 0xacab are much more lovely than the github ones, this project has outgrown the former: - Github offers beefy continuous integration, make it easier to run the testsuite on every python version, instead of using a weird docker-based contraption. Moreover, I'd rather burn some Microsoft money than 0xacab one. - Opening an account on 0xacab is non-trivial (by design), making it tedious for people to report issues and contribute to mat2. - Gitlab is becoming unbearably slow and convoluted, even compared to Github's awful Copilot/AI push. It's a sad state of affairs, but it's a pragmatic decision. People who don't have a Github account can still report issues and send patches by sending me an email. --- doc/comparison_to_others.md | 8 ++++---- doc/mat2.1 | 2 +- 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) (limited to 'doc') diff --git a/doc/comparison_to_others.md b/doc/comparison_to_others.md index 8939009..02648bd 100644 --- a/doc/comparison_to_others.md +++ b/doc/comparison_to_others.md @@ -19,14 +19,14 @@ details. # jpegoptim, optipng, … While designed to reduce as much as possible the size of pictures, -those software can be used to remove metadata.
