Except I'm massively misreading the tea leaves I don't expect drm to move from fd.o to k.org. Our interaction surface towards the userspace projects hosted on fd.o (mesa, X11, wayland, ...) is much bigger than towards the other parts of the kernel, I expect us to stay with those folks. Being able to reassign/move issues and have simple cross-project discussions with those guys matters a lot. Same reasons really for us abandoning kernel bugzilla in favour of the fd.o one. Of course that's just drm, no idea who else might entertain this. -Daniel > > ..
