It makes sense to only have one main repository, but I don't think it makes sense to make that github. > Besides, most fixes come from users (maybe not the actual patches but > they spot most of the problems) so providing an easier way for them to > contribute is preferred. Have you operated or used Gerrit? I think it's a really great tool to kill two birds with one stone; commits can be reviewed, iterated, accepted and rejected easily and all that is required to contribute (push a commit to Gerrit) is an OpenID and an SSH key. > Moreover, github provides other facilities such as code reviews, > which the Gentoo's gitolite interface does not have. It's easy to find reasons *against* something. I think it's more important to consider respective benefits. //Peter
