TDE Gitea Workspace Available!
The Trinity Desktop Environment (TDE) development team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the new <a href="https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea">TDE Gitea Workspace (TGW)</a> collaboration tool.

<a href="https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/images/3/33/TGW_Repository.png"><img alt="" src="/media/news/TGW_Repository_thumb.png" width=321 border=0></a><a href="https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/images/2/2e/TGW_Pulls.png"><img alt="" src="/media/news/TGW_Pulls_thumb.png" width=321 border=0></a>

TGW is a Gitea-based, GitHub-style, self-hosted copy of the official source code repositories that is synchronized with the main server on a hourly basis. It offers wider bandwidth and a collaboration workflow that helps achieving the aim of providing:
<ul><li>fast access to the source code, both through Git or web interface</li><li>an easy tool for users and external developers to propose code changes and improvements</li><li>a quick way for code sharing and collaboration amongst developers</li><li>a simple workflow for reviewing, testing and merging code patches</li></ul>
TGW has been thought to serve the needs of the following groups:
<ul><li>people who want to have fast anonymous read-only access to the TDE source code</li><li>users who intend to report bugs and propose ideas for ehnancement</li><li>contributors who intend to submit code changes for inclusion into TDE official source code</li><li>developers who want to cooperate on some common functionality or bug fix</li></ul>
TDE core developers are already using TGW on a daily basis and they hope more and more users and contributors will join them soon.
