None of that changes based on the repository URL. Linuxbrew will still be `brew` for Linux.\r\n\r\nI don't think that having Linuxbrew in the Homebrew organization contributes significantly to the Homebrew maintainership burden; I don't think the occasional misfiled ticket is especially annoying to handle. (I'm aware that I haven't exactly been putting my money where my mouth is wrt maintenance duties lately, so weigh my statements accordingly.)\r\n\r\nThe only reason that would be important to me to migrate Linuxbrew out of the Homebrew organization is the potential for more aggressive CI on Travis. I have found it frustrating to support Linuxbrew because the supported environments aren't well-described or well-tested and I end up breaking things on versions of CentOS I have never once cared about. Since the number of simultaneously active Travis workers is capped per organization, if Linuxbrew starts using more Travis workers to cover more platforms through clever (ab)use of docker, that would degrade the Homebrew contribution and maintainership experience unless we complete this migration. (It's possible I could be wrong because e.g. maybe OS X and Linux workers are tallied independently, or because we might be able to get Travis support to smile upon the Homebrew organization.)"}}
