Should we pay & support a comfort of regimes which built walls against the rest of the world? That is their choice.

Yep. If Github becomes the only working repo, users from China mainland have to either always use VPN, or maintain local mirrors time by time.

It should be an issue for China mainland users, as they have to use VPN for all other open-source project present on GitHub (MbedTls, Zephyr, FreeRTOS, CMSIS, PSA Arch Tests and etc.)

Hi all,
It is difficult for developers from China mainline to directly access Github. Option 3 looks more reliable.

Hello,
Quite some time ago there was a proposal to move TF-M into GitHub. The main motivation is: more convenient review process, the Wiki for knowledge sharing and issue tracking facility. This idea had been discussed multiple times in TSC. The following options were considered:
1. Hybrid: Add TF-M on GitHub with 2 ways synchronization between GitHub and existing Git/Gerrit 2. GitHub only: Move to GitHub completely and drop Gerrit. 3. Mirror: Create a read-only mirror on GitHub. TF-M review process stays in Gerrit but Wiki and issue tracking are on GitHub. 4. Nothing: Stay on Gerrit as good enough solution. The options are ordered by complexity and cost each has pros and cons. The Mirror option (3) seeing as the best compromise and practically affordable in a short time.
Please share your opinion and comments on the topic with any dependencies or specific requirements to be considered.
Thanks, Anton
