Dear Holger,

> […]

I'm sorry this appears to have upset you so much I'm afraid I'm
somewhat struggling to see the full extent why.

Not only was the entire GitHub organisation empty (and was at least
since the salsa migration), it was highly misleading and, naturally, we
can recreate it within 60 seconds.

(I also would have thought that any solution to /potential/ duplication
of issues between the Debian BTS and salsa would not be to introduce a
_third_ entity anyway, and alas GitHub Issues cannot really be used
without also duplicating the code there too, making the workflow for
code even worse too. Indeed, this is what I was definitely finding
before when we had a mirror.)

Naturally, if I thought this would have been a problem I would not have
pushed the button.


Best wishes,
