Re: [ jEdit-users ] modernizing the build process: github/actions, maven central, etc.

[Matthieu C. <cho...@gm...>]

Hey,
about github vs Sourceforge I must say that I use Github a lot for various projects and I find it is much more fluid to work with it than Sourceforge which failed to evolve.
But in any case before making such move the first thing to do would be to migrate to git which would be very nice but is also a time consuming task.
