GitHub stability has become a problem. Gitlab and Bitbucket are often not great alternatives. Can Cloud Run's Developer Connect please add Codeberg and Forgejo alternatives?

Last month GitHub had some substantial and extended service outages, including major data loss of merged commits. While this month has been quite a bit better, a lot of people are looking for alternatives. Codeberg (https://codeberg.org/) looks like the best fully open alternative with a better UX. Its self-hosted version is Forgejo, https://forgejo.org/.

I'd like to connect my Cloud Run services to Codeberg repos, including private repos, and self-hosted Forgejo repos. "Developer Connect" in https://console.cloud.google.com/run/create already supports Gitlab and Bitbucket including their self-hosted and Enterprise/Cloud versions respectively, but those have some serious disadvantages such as difficult and slow UX interactions, among other things. Is this a reasonable request?

More US bird law: How do I clean up possible bald eagle feathers without illegally taking possession of them?

A December 31, 2024 federal rule[1] created a regulatory authorization for certain temporary possession and disposition of migratory bird specimens, including feathers, when they are found dead or as parts, but bald and golden eagles remain subject to additional restrictions under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act.[2] Possessing a bald eagle feather is a federal crime in the United States, carrying penalties of up to $100,000 in fines and one year in prison for a first offense.

I occasionally find unknown feathers in my yard while doing ordinary lawn cleanup, and I cannot reliably determine whether any particular feather came from an eagle, another protected migratory bird, or an unprotected species. What steps should I take when raking, bagging, trashing, or otherwise disposing of yard debris that may contain unknown feathers, so that I avoid unauthorized possession or disposal of any protected bird material?

For example, suppose I wanted to ask for a legal opinion along the lines of "I got some good advice from [resource] on contract law, and it has served me well. Are there any sources which improve on it?"

Would simply asking for improvements to a respected source be forbidden?
