[Python-Dev] Microsoft to acquire GitHub for $7.5 billion

[Victor Stinner]

Hi,

It's now official: Microsoft is acquiring GitHub.

I copy the news here since Python rely more and more on GitHub.

At this point, I have no opinion about the event :-) I just guess that
it should make GitHub more sustainable since Microsoft is a big
company with money and interest in GitHub. I'm also confident that
nothing will change soon. IMHO there is no need to worry about
anything.
