Hi

I am exploring git hosting options and web interfaces. I have
implemented my own system based on gitweb, git, gitosis and gitstat.
I'm exploring github:FI

If anyone knows is it worth the price. we have@100 users; so we are
looking at $1000 * 100

If you are looking at OSS equivalents to GitHub, you should take a
look at Gitorious (in Ruby), InDefero (in PHP) and Girocco (in Perl +
shell, powers repo.or.cz).

I use GitHub but I've never tried github:fi, and I'm not the target
audience.

I've heard from some people that have reviewed it from their corporate
deployments, and the typical process seems to be 1) Oh an internal
GitHub would be nice 2) It costs WHAT!.

Here's some issues that were noted when pobox was looking at it, I
think they eventually went with some gitweb + fork support kind of
thing:

GitHub has a really nice UI, but a startup cost of a $100k for a 100
man company seems like a lot to fork out for that, when you can get
away with using e.g. gitorious or a gitweb setup with some
customization.
