- What does GitHub Enterprise buy us? Which of these issues
would that fix?
It's a self-hosted GitHub. It would allow us to have private repositories (good for deploys, ops, etc.) and manage our own user database (we could integrate with our own auth system) and probably waives the 13 and under rule above.
The price is too steep since its a per-seat license. A nonstarter if the WMF is going to have to pay for every potential developer who wants to attach.
The per-seat license scheme can usually be negotiated with the company, I am pretty sure any company will be glad to offer a huge discount or just provide an unlimited license instead of seeing a potential customer to move to a competitor. Unless said company just do not care about your small revenues / sector ..
I am pretty sure GitHub will be glad to host Wikimedia git repositories as an in-kind donation. Helping our project is definitely a nice asset to any company willing to build a nice reputation, that will provide them with a nice reference when prospecting new customer.
