It should work. It’s our domain. Maybe you cannot access the Albania TLD?
Sam can fix this easily… drone.cppalliance.org should also work.

I think we are all getting ahead of ourselves here. I am not suggesting we
move. What I am saying is specific:

We should evaluate each of the alternatives to GitHub. What would a
migration look like? What would we gain? What would we lose? The objective
is simply to be prepared *if* and only if the need arises. This way we are
not caught off-guard at the last minute if GitHub takes a sudden turn and
its quality of service impairs the Boost mission to deliver our libraries
reliably three times a year.

To start, let’s catalog the possible solutions.

Codeberg

Gitlab

Gitea (is this a hosted solution?)

Then for each solution we can research what they offer and have a write up.
I can create a repository for this so we can all contribute to shared
documents.

Thanks
