It's worth mentioning Fedora's University Involvement Initiative where part of the ecosystem is Pagure which is their replacement platform for Github. Why? Because it aligns with the Four Foundations:

•     Open-sources: Web-interface for the git repositories
•     Flexibility: Ability to create any project you want
•     One place: Keep your documentation and tickets in pagure
•     Collaboration: Fork a project and make a pull-request
•     Integration: Create pull-request from a fork hosted somewhere else than in pagure
•     Open data: Sources, doc, ticket and pull-requests meta-data are available in the web interface but also in git repos which can thus be cloned and changed locally.
•     Freedom: Pagure is fully Free and Open-Source Software!

Excellent, thanks Viorel! I didn't know about Pagure at all: it looks pretty neat, and a much cleaner bit of software than GitLab, that I have found a bit of a pain to install and configure, especially as it uses a freemium model and not everything is available in the community edition. I've been impressed so far with Phabricator (http://phabricator.org/) that is 'probably' (according to the site - I'm guessing they are basing this on an informed hunch rather than reliable information) being used by Wikimedia, Facebook, Khan, Uber and Dropbox. It bundles a vast range of project management goodies - I love the drag and drop task management, would have helped a lot with the Landing's early development, and the level of detail goes right down to tracking legal documentation - and bug tracking, as well as a decent source control system that can use SVN, Git or Mercurial, including from other repositories, with a similar workflow to pull requests, a good diff tool, and communication tools like wikis, blog, chat, etc, all tightly integrated in one pretty straightforward PHP application. It even has a command line interface for those that need it. Sounds quite like Pagure in general intent, but is much more than a GitHub replacement. My only real reservations about it are that it is trying to do too much - it is, essentially, everything needed to manage large software development projects, so it's unlikely that all the tools are best of breed.

And another one! Apache Allura - used by SourceForge.

I fear the whale might be on West Coast Time, but we can offer a Cherry Blossom Barge!

Before the Japanese developed a taste for whaleburgers, there would be a whole pod of whales not just one.Time for Greenpeace to get back in action.

It wasn't so much the Japanese as Western tastes, mainly for lamp oil and perfume, but to a lesser extent for things like corsets, umbrellas and pet food, that had the biggest effect on the whale population. Nowadays, it's not helped by the tendency for whale-watching cruise ships to occasionally run into and even impale whales on their bows. Nor is it helped by the large amount of noise our ships and boats create in the oceans, let alone the discarded detritus, leaking oil, unkind use of fish nets, and over-fishing that is destroying their habitat and food sources. While most countries eschew actually eating whales (not that most Westerners ever did - carcasses were often discarded once the more valuable bits had been harvested, which makes it it even worse), most are still actively contributing to their demise. Sad. Time for us to reduce our consumption! 

Jon,

Thanks for sharing the presentation. I wish I had been able to attend the conference.

I really enjoyed and appreciated your notion of Web 1.5.
