Thomas isn't blaming openrepos. He only proposes an alternative for 
hosting _open_ _source_ projects that don't fit into the Harbour.

I think no one is going crazy here - I believe that using Chum won't 
hurt Openrepos. Openrepos will still exist and work. Anyway it's good to 
hear there are improvements planed to Openrepos!

Well the thing Thomas is proposing isn't his own idea, actually Chum 
stuff comes from one of the sailors - lbt (David Greaves).

Nobody is mad - I was on FOSDEM and on the round table and I haven't 
seen any madness from anyone, instead interesting discussion regarding 
topics such as security for example.

Well nobody said that Openrepos is against FOSS - I'd recommend you to 
calm down and read his post once again. Accusing someone of lies won't 
help the discussion. Instead I would rather look forward hearing from 
you what are the plans for developement/improvements of Openrepos. Let's 
focus on positive sides of both solutions.
