I'm starting to wonder whether operating a shared #code-hosting platform is only possible with sponsorship. #Gitorious collapsed because their paid hosting couldn't cover their costs (which includes the cost of free hosting). I don't believe #Github ever publicly released figures, but I do remember hearing a rumor that they were not profitable before #Microsoft purchased them. #Bitbucket still persists, but #Atlassian has made so many changes to their offerings that IMO, using their platform is putting everything that touches it at risk. #SourceForge went to all sorts of dangerous extremes to try to monetize the huge number of repositories they host (most of which appear to be residue of projects that have either died or moved their active repos elsewhere).
#Darcs_Hub ( #Darcs ), #The_Nest ( #Pijul ), and #ChiselApp ( #Fossil ) are all too small to experience the tremendous cost factors.

@clacke This must be a self-hosted instance of #Jira. I have not seen anyone mentioning downtime for #Atlassian cloud services (such as #BitBucket)

@musicman I have no experience with #Atlassian #Confluence. I've seen it used as a wiki on a couple of #Apache projects, but that's all. I've heard rumors that it is difficult to use.

Having trouble with #Atlassian's #Bitbucket ... if I get in, I'm just going to clone / download a couple of repos and then close my account. There's no non-malicious reason to have all these third-party scripts, so I'll leave them to stew in the juices they create.
