[python-committers] [Python-Dev] PEP 581 (Using GitHub issues for CPython) is accepted

[Xiang Zhang]

Ahh sorry, not just updated but seems for some time, though not long, seems starting from May. Today due to some reason this news populates my social media. I don't understand what's the affects of this but definitely disappointed
because this brings some risks to Python users. And this seems something not we can change.

From a quick non-expert read, that document seems to say that
github.com is subject to the same export control laws as every other
US company, but they don't do much to enforce them. ("Users are
responsible", "Github.com has not been audited", etc.) Can you give
any more details? You said something changed – what was it? Is there a
reason to think that github is different in this respect from any
other platform we might use, including self-hosting? (For better or
worse, the PSF is also a US corporation subject to US law...)
