Game of Trees Hub

Git repository hosting running Game of Trees (https://gameoftrees.org).
Created and operated by Game of Trees developers and OpenBSD developers.

We want to create a financially sustainable Git hosting service which
keeps your data secure and supports the development of Game of Trees.

Service will become available soon.

To keep this service sustainable, repository space owners will be required to pay a monthly fee.
User accounts for committers can be added free of charge.
Public and private repositories will be supported.

We will keep your data secure. We will not sell or otherwise abuse your data.
The service will be powered by OpenBSD and hosted at carefully selected
hosting providers who align with our goals.

Anyone can see where our funds come from and where they go to.

Game of Trees and this hosting service is created by volunteers.
You can support us by contributing via opencollective.
Sufficient contributions will allow us to spend more time on this project
and move it forward faster. Contributions are NOT tax deductible.
We ask for your postal address because our fiscal host is subject to VAT in the EU,
Sales Tax in the US, and similar taxes elsewhere for sales to consumers.
Without an address it can be difficult to determine where tax is due.
Please contact us before making very large contributions (1000 EUR or more).

Renting Git repository space will require Stripe payments.
These mandatory fees are designed to cover hosting costs, taxes,
and contribute towards time developers and admins spend on this project.
We will provide a breakdown of how our pricing tiers are calculated.
Our pricing tiers may change over time.
The ultimate goal of our pricing strategy is fairness, not profit.

The fiscal host of this collective is Stefan Sperling's company
Chirpy Software SRL (https://chirpysoft.be), located in Belgium.
Stefan founded the Game of Trees project in 2017.
Our fiscal host can provide B2B and B2C invoices on request.

Current project status:

We have a working server implementation:
https://got.gameoftrees.org
which can already be self-hosted on OpenBSD and Linux:
https://gameoftrees.org/gotd.8.html
User-facing Git service configuration management has been automated:
https://gameoftrees.org/gotsysd.8.html

We are finishing our service deployment system, and
are figuring out pricing tiers required to make the service sustainable.
