Goodbye, GitHub

According to their decision that has been posted at their blog, I have also decided to move my projects to bitbucket.org, which had been hosted at GitHub. bitbucket.org has sufficient features to replace it and provide the upload space too!

They are encouraging the users to use downloadable source code archives feature, but it doesn't help for the projects that requires autotools and any bootstrap process, because bootstrapped-files won't be usually checked into the repository and doing so is a bad idea. speaking of autotools, they are checking the generated version and runtime version. it's easy to make the downloaded archives unusable.

Anyway, I'm now happy with bitbucket.org.
