Project Loom Is Moving to GitHub

[Ron Pressler]

Next week, Project Loom will transition, on a trial basis, to a Git repository 
hosted on GitHub on as part of Project Skara [1]. 

The GitHub Loom repository is at [2] (which is currently a read-only mirror).

Loom was chosen as a Skara early adopter because of the relatively small number
of active committers, as well as the fact that most of them are in the European
time zones, like the Skara team, who will then be able to provide close support.

Developers who are interested in learning more about the Skara tools and workflow
can find information on the Skara Wiki [3], GitHub project [4], and mailing list
[5].

At the moment, Project Loom will not be accepting unsolicited pull-requests. Any
contribution from a non-committer must first be discussed on the Loom mailing
list [6].
