This message announces a permanent change to project creation on
pagure.io. The self-service creation of new projects (repositories) is now
disabled.
This decision is a direct response to the influx of spam projects. The
ongoing effort to mitigate this spam has become unsustainable.
Key Changes:
* Self-Service Project Creation Disabled: The ability to create new
projects independently on pagure.io is now permanently disabled.
* Forking Functionality Retained: The forking of existing projects
remains fully operational.
* Managed Project Creation for Fedora Teams: Fedora teams requiring
new projects on pagure.io should submit a request via the Fedora
Infrastructure ticket tracker. The infrastructure team will manage the
creation of these projects.
* Forgejo-Based Platform Development: Concurrently, we are developing
an alternative platform for Fedora teams, based on Forgejo.
Updates concerning the managed project creation process and the
Forgejo platform will be provided in the future.
