The repository is still accessible in http://git.overlays.gentoo.org
and read-only access is still available. However, the write access
removed because of potential conflicts between g.o.g.o and github. If
you can guarantee me that people will not mess things up and not
commit only to one of the to remotes, then we can enable write access
again.

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. Moreover, github provides other facilities
such as code reviews, which the Gentoo's gitolite interface does not have.
