Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] CGRAN down indefinitely, but hopefully not for long (want feedback)

[Martin Braun]

This is something that comes up at our dev calls (and other dev 
meetings) regularly, and we really need to address it sooner rather than 
later.

George, if the support burden is getting to much, we can surely fix a 
short-term solution by migrating stuff to some temporary location (let's 
take this specific discussion offline, though).

In the future, we'd like to have something that ties in nicely with 
Pybombs, and also uses the gits. How exactly, that's something we need 
to decide, and any community input on this is appreciated.

Cheers,
M
