Release @gittip on Twitter

[mattbk]

Remember when @gittip used to be daily tips on git. Maybe time to hand it back @gratipay ?

https://twitter.com/MotoWilliams/status/793467125092409345

What say we? Has it been long enough since the name change?

[chadwhitacre]

I would be happy to hand it back. Wanna dig up the ticket where we did the transfer in the first place and figure out the reverse dance?

[rohitpaulk]

Hmm - What all are we willing to release? How about the domain gittip.com?

Ooh, I didn't know that we transferred it from someone.

[rohitpaulk]

gratipay/gratipay.com#742 is the ticket

Ping @codereflection. Would you be interested in @gittip again?

[chadwhitacre]

Pinged on Twitter as well.

[chadwhitacre]

No bites. We can reopen if that changes.

[motowilliams]

I'd be willing to take this over. Happy to stand up a a site for of the domain as well. Thinking just a simple static gh pages account so the community can start collecting some cool tips and tricks for our favorite scm again.

Do you folks run github.com/gittips as well?

[chadwhitacre]

@motowilliams Let's do it! Drop me an email [email protected] and I will send you the password for the Twitter account.

[chadwhitacre]

Do you folks run github.com/gittips as well?

Nope. Looks like that is @anurse?

We do have https://github.com/gittip, though, if you're interested in that.

How about the domain gittip.com?

I think we want to keep that, to preserve redirects. Maybe gittip.org though?

[analogrelay]

"gittips" was just a random site I created when I had some git tips to share. It's not related to any twitter account or domain name currently.

[chadwhitacre]

@anurse Interested in collaborating with @motowilliams on a new Git Tips effort? :)

[analogrelay]

Afraid I don't have a lot of free time right now, sorry!

[chadwhitacre]

No worries, cheers! :-)

[codereflection]

Glad to see someone is willing to take this over. Apologies for the late response, life has been far to busy and I wouldn't be able to put any effort into maintaining the handle on Twitter.

[chadwhitacre]

For the record, this will break links such as at gratipay/gratipay.com#1031 (comment).

[chadwhitacre]

I've heard from @motowilliams in private email, asking for Twitter, the @gittip org, and gittip.org. And my furniture. :P

🏀 is in my court ...

[chadwhitacre]

I updated that one link, and I've closed https://gratipay.com/~Gittip/.

[chadwhitacre]

@motowilliams I've invited you to be an owner of the @gittip org, and I've emailed you the password to the Twitter account. Now for the domain ...

[chadwhitacre]

I've also mailed you an iwantmyname.com transfer authorization code for gittip.org. I believe that's everything you need to achieve your dreams! 💖

[chadwhitacre]

Domain transfer approved under https://gratipay.freshdesk.com/helpdesk/tickets/6775.

[chadwhitacre]

I've deleted gittip.org in DNSimple.

[mattbk]

Looks like we're done?
