Step 1: Get respected member of MS community. Step 2: Use said community connection to move people from codeplex to github. Step 3: Profit.



Doesn't sound like a bad outcome to me, I'll take GitHub over Codeplex any day (my own .NET code is on GH too)


I'm more than ok with it as well.

Where?


Sorry not an OSS project (at least not yet). I've got one work project on GH and one "nights and weekends startup" project both in private repositories. But I like the workflow of using git for my source control versus something like TFS. Although I admit I initially picked it up just because I wanted to learn something new, I used GH instead of a local git repository because my side project has another collaborator.

EDIT: my beef with Codeplex is that I just don't find it very usable when I'm researching something. Purely as a repository for things like NuGet packages it's probably fine.
