Dude. Mohammed is from Iran...
sigh. I never check and don't care where people are from. if they're contributing to libre projects, that's what's awesome and what counts.
Besides that.
LibreSilicon does not only have developers from restricted countries in their
team, but also, because of its free silicon nature, will interfere severely
with the patriots act and some other US policies, which will get us banned by
the US sooner or later anyway.
I wish that there was a flaw somewhere in this line of reasoning. It is sad to recognise some of the worst aspects of history unfold yet again, right now, in 2019.
Because of this, I already have setup git.libresilicon.com (Our own GIT host)
as well as redmine.libresilicon.com (Our own tracker) and I'm in the process
of moving *all* the projects over there, right now.
Fantastic.
