Accepting contributions, fixes, features, from the other repository about 360controller

+1 to that. I believe supreme leader @electric-monk could have a look at the changes and oversee the merge with his repo if he wants that.

Hey all, this definitely sounds like something I'd like to do, I just need to get around to it ;) The form on the website does work, it's just that I've been so busy, mostly with work but also other projects, that I kept putting it off...at least once I replied to an e-mail not realising it'd been a year since the last message. Anyway, let me see ;)

@electric-monk: If you'd like, I can rebase our work on top of your tree. That said, there have been lots of changes, and right now our bugtracker is quite populated, so maybe it would be better to migrate everything to an GitHub organization?

@jaraco has done a merge of the forks, and I created a pull request here: #7. Although it isn't up-to-date with @d235j's fork: it only goes up to d235j/360Controller-n@70ae031.

Hey all, sorry for the delay. Busy at work/with DIY/working out having been knocked down by a car while cycling home so i didn't get time to reply sooner, but I'm not super familiar with github - what's the benefits of an organisation over pull requests?

[jaraco]

@electric-monk An organization means the project can be managed by a larger community, so if you're indisposed (hit by a car; sorry), others can push the project forward, or if you're hit by a bus (let's hope not), others can continue the effort. I think implicit in the suggestion is that some contributors be granted write/admin privileges on the project once migrated to the organization.

Hey @electric-monk are you recovering well from the accident? we haven't heard more news about you!
Cheers!

[electric-monk]

Sorry! Yeah, I feel mostly normal now, though waiting to order a new bike! Apologies for not replying, work and life (I'm also redoing my kitchen, not to mention playing with hobby OS development) got in the way a little. An organisation sounds good, what do I do to create one? It looks like I'd make a new account and switch it into "organisation" mode?

[d235j]

I've just created an organization and transferred the repository. @electric-monk, @MaddTheSane, and @RodrigoCard, can you accept the organization invitations? I will assign permissions as soon as you do :)

[d235j]

At this point I think it's best for @electric-monk to transfer the old repo to a "historic" branch; there have been too many chances to the forked repo that attempting a merge, while easy enough, will break everyone's local branches, so rebasing master is probably not a good idea.

[d235j]

@electric-monk: does everything look OK with you?

[RodrigoCard]

Great! Accepted it right now.
I think @FranticRain should be added to the organization too if he is okay with that, he made various valuable contributions.

[Drewbadour]

I'd appreciate that, thanks.

[electric-monk]

@d235j: I think it looks okay. Not sure what the best way to send this repo over there as a historical branch is though.
