Hi Jean-Paul,

Technical pros and cons are valid arguments, correct, but that wasn't my point here. I'm trying to look at the contractual issues involved, that's all. 

I'm not saying "only platform X is acceptable", just that right now I only have proof that our self-hosted Subversion repositories on svn.zope.org appear to meet all the legal requirements laid out by the contributor agreements and the role of the Zope Foundation as the guard of these contributions as well as contributors' private data held by the Zope Foundation.
