Hi Dave,

Since we didn't used to have private repositories on common-lisp.net and GitLab was simply restructuring the status quo *and* I wanted to move forward without having lengthy policy discussions first, I disabled the option for users to create private repositories.

As a common-lisp.net admin, I'm not opposed to allowing private repositories if that stimulates use of the site and thereby also stimulates having public repositories.

As a common-lisp.net admin, I'd like the CLF to give their "Ok" too and as a CLF board member, I think that if we can provide private repositories at a rate, we could use that money to cover the CLF's and common-lisp.net's operational expenses; in that sense, I'd like it not to be donations to common-lisp.net, but to the CLF in the general sense. We'll need to talk to Harm about this model though, because there could be tax implications.

I'm not sure if the above is the answer you were looking for? Should we talk about it in one of our board meetings for CLF?

Regards,

Erik.

Hi,

Do we have the ability to create Private Projects on common-lisp.net's gitlab?

If not, is this planned? Maybe for a paid service?

Regards,

Dave
