</div>FWIW I'm pretty strongly in favor of GHI for NumPy/SciPy (I am going<br>
to get involved in NumPy dev eventually, promise). While warty in some<br>
of the places already mentioned, I have found it to be very<br>
low-friction and low-annoyance in my own dev process (nearing 1000<br>
issues closed in the last year in pandas). But there are fewer cooks<br>
in the kitchen with pandas so perhaps this experience wouldn't be<br>
identical with NumPy. The biggest benefit I've seen is community<br>
involvement that you really wouldn't see if I were using a Trac or<br>
something else hosted elsewhere. Users are on GitHub and it for some<br>
reason gives people a feeling of engagement in the open source process<br>
that I don't see anywhere else.</blockquote><div><br>Feels like it's time to make a decision on this. <br><br>I see no blocking objections against Github, so perhaps we should give it a go. The attachment issue for data files can be solved by relocating those to a server we still administer. Trac is currently annoying me also, because I need to change the milestone of ~50 tickets and have no good way of doing it. So nothing's perfect. Github's hosting service, possibly more user involvement and centralizing all our tools there may be enough to outweigh the limitations of GHI.<br>
