Quoting Serge Victor ####@####.####

Excuse me, Serge, but what specific duties do you assert that I dumped?
Any at all? Can you name at least one? Any? If you think you can
simply decree that having and using a login w/associated contractual
relationship at GitHub is a 'duty', you are very mistaken.
I have continued to diligently maintain my works and will gladly make
them available ot LDP via any submission method LDP prefers that
doesn't require me to sign up for a conractual relationship with
Microsoft subsidiary GitHub, Inc.
Since you have -- yet again -- pointedly ignored my polite request that
someone identify such a submission method of any kind, I guess the
answer is that you prefer LDP to be Microsoft-dependent and are evading
my question.
This is the same non-answer you gave in 2013. I mostly wanted to call
attention to the matter, and see if the non-answer is the same since
Microsoft Corporation's acquisition.
OK, fine. LDP wishes to part with the open source community. Let me
know if LDP changes this policy

I'm always delighted to use git -- of course.
Are you suggesting some workflow using git, but without requiring a GitHub
account? If so, I'd be delighted to hear it. (I've asked that question
before, and the question was ignored.)
Logging into GitHub and using git are fundamentally distinct things.
I really hope you didn't think we couldn't figure that out.
> If you want guys to join LDP, you are welcome.
I _did_ join LDP -- a couple of decades before you, I do believe. LDP
has seemingly quit _me_, and quit the open source community generally.
If that changes, kindly let us know. Until then, the head versions of
my HOWTO and FAQ are elsewhere. They're open source, so you're welcome
to pick up the SGML any time LDP wants them.
But don't bother with the spin control. It's not fooling anyone.
