 Lindenii Forge aims to be an uncomplicated yet featured software forge,
 primarily designed for self-hosting by small organizations and individuals.
 
-The Lindenii project itself
-[runs an instance](https://forge.lindenii.runxiyu.org/),
-where the
-[official source repository of Lindenii Forge](https://forge.lindenii.runxiyu.org/lindenii/:/repos/forge/)
-is located.
-
-## Setup
-
-* Clone the source code and build a binary with `make`.
-  (You will need a Go toolchain, a C compiler, and GNU Make.)
-* Generate an SSH key pair with `ssh-keygen`.
-* Create a PostgreSQL database and run `schema.sql`.
-* Set up reverse proxies, etc., if desired.
-* Copy `forge.scfg` to `/etc/lindenii/forge.scfg` or another reasonable
-  location and edit appropriately.
-
-When email integration is ready and you wish to use email integration, you may
-need to set up
-[Lindenii Mail Daemon](https://forge.lindenii.runxiyu.org/lindenii/:/repos/maild/)
-and configure it accordingly.
-
-Currently, database migrations must be done manually.
-
-## Organization
-
-Misc URLs (for hosting stylesheets, scripts, the login page, etc.) are like
-`https://forge.example.org/:/functionality...`.
-
-Contentful URLs are like
-`https://forge.example.org/group_name/subgroup_name.../:/module_type/module_name`.
-
-The available `module_type`s are:
-
-* `repos` for version control
-* `tickets` for ticket trackers
-* `discuss` for discussions
-
-Group and subgroup names may not be `:`.
-
-While this syntax looks a bit odd, it makes it possible to unambiguously
-identify where subgroups end and modules begin, without needing to touch the
-database.
-
-## Protocols and user interfaces
-
-The following should be roughly equivalent in functionality:
-
-* Web interface
-* Custom TLS-based API
-* HTTP GraphQL API
-
-The following shall function where they make sense:
-
-* User-friendly SSH interface
-* Email interface
-
-## Features
-
-### Git repos
-
-* Viewing commits and patches
-* Viewing trees and files
-* Viewing arbitrary hashed objects and refs
-* Viewing tags
-
-### Merge requests
-
-Each version-controlled repo ("main repo") has an area for merge requests
-("MR"s) which may be optionally enabled. A MR is a request to merge 
-changes from one branch ("source branch") into another ("destination branch"),
-in the same repo. The source branch usually, but not always, begins with
-`contrib/`.
-
-* Unsolicited pushes to `contrib/...` automatically open a MR, returning
-  instructions to edit the description and manage the MR further, via the
-  SSH standard error channel.
-* Patches received from email will be automatically converted into MRs.
-* The web interface and APIs (to create MRs from existing branches).
-
-MR branches will be synced to automatically created MR-specific mailing lists.
-These mailing lists should have archives accessible via read-only IMAP.
-The contents of merge requests are presented as what would be produced from
-git-send-email.
-
-It should also be possible for people to perform code reviews via email by
-interwoven a quoted patch with replies, and all these replies should be synced
-to the main MR database, presented via IMAP and the Web interface.
-
-This is probably the most unique feature of Lindenii Forge: while the general
-structure is similar to Forgejo-style pull requests, MRs are automatically
-created based on branch namespaces (similar to Gerrit in some respects) and are
-synced to mailing lists. This allows users to submit MRs via email, or git
-push, or the Web interface, or the API, to support developers with different
-workflows.
-
-### Ticket tracking
-
-Ticket tracking works like todo.sr.ht, though we also intend to support IMAP
-for viewing them and downloading them locally for later use.
-
-Directed acrylic graphs or other dependency mechanisms may be considered in the
-far future.
-
-It should be possible to associate tickets with MRs.
-
-### Discussions
-
-Discussions are basically mailing lists that could also be used from a Web
-interface. IMAP archive should be provided.
-
-Discussions are not designed to handle patchsets. Patchsets should be send to
-the corresponding repo, where they are turned into Lindenii patchsets.
-
-Mailing list messages are expected to be plain text. A subset of markdown shall
-be considered. No full-HTML emails are expected for normal traffic.
-
-### CI
-
-We generally prefer to have linters, deployment pipelines and such run on each
-local developer's machine, for example as a pre-commit hook. However there are
-reasons why CI might be useful.
-
-We plan to integrate a builds.sr.ht-style CI in the future.
-
-### Authentication and authorization
-
-* Anonymous SSH and HTTPS read access is possible for public repos.
-* Git write access is authenticated via SSH public keys.
-* The TLS API will be authenticated with TLS client certificates.
-* The web interface has a dedicated login screen. Logins are remembered with
-  cookies. A dropdown box will be available to select the time the user wishes
-  to remain logged in.
-* Commit validation based on SSH signature validation will be implemented.
-
-### Federated authentication
-
-We probably won't fully support ForgeFed because it's way too bloated. However,
-some type of federated authentication may be considered.
-
-Since Forgejo, SourceHut, and GitHub all publicly serve their users' SSH keys,
-people who submit merge requests by pushing via SSH into the branch namespace
-may link their SSH keys to an identity on an external forge. We will also serve
-users' SSH keys, but it would be opt-in.
-
-OpenID Connect will likely not be supported.
-
-This plan is subject to change.
