This is very nice of you Marcin, but honestly I'm struggling to imagine<br>
how is going to work. Are you suggesting we abandon Kallithea and all<br>
hard work we’ve done and just go help develop RhodeCode? Yes, there<br>
seems to be a lot of development in RhodeCode, but is there really a big<br>
community around it? From the Mercurial log it looks more like a single<br>
person project (while certainly you do a lot of work!). What if<br>
something happens to the company again?<br></blockquote><div>I for one am actually considering going back to RhodeCode. I already thought about this before Marcin answered to the mail. But it is a big step and I have not made up my mind yet. I'll have to take a closer look a the current state of the RhodeCode project.</div><div><br></div><div>Sure it hurts to give up all the work, but like I already said I done feel like we have accomplished that much.

I understand how you feel about the project you started, but I don't<br>
think it is the best idea to join to projects by abandoning one<br>
developed by the community. It would be much better if the company could<br>
become a member of the community instead.<br>
<br>
I'm not saying "no, we don't want to work with you", not at all. What<br>
I'm saying if we want to work together, we need a better plan.<br>
<br>

Cheers,<br>
