 * Decent baby-sitting required: updates, monitoring and backup/restore (how many h/m?)
 * Poorly scalable, but could perform better than SaaS (DoS protection?)
+* Registration (spam) still need babysitting, but less than for Trac (semi automatic)
 
-=== SaaS Forgejo on Codeberg ===
+Questions or remarks:
+* Maybe LA could manage the self-hosted instance for a short term (e.g.: 1 year)?

+* Registration (spam) is handled by Codeberg
 
 Cons:
-* Links to comments are broken
-* Links to attachments are broken (or no attachement at all?)

-* website needs to be adapted to work on Codeberg
