Github could die in a ball of fire, and it wouldn't change the core development, it would only change the development for the people who elected to use github.

Github is just a convenient go-to service for many. --=20 Kent perl -e=C2=A0 "print substr( \"edrgmaM=C2=A0 SPA NOcomil.ic\\@tfrken\", \$_= * 3, 3 ) for ( 9,8,0,7,1,6,5,4,3,2 );" http://kent-fredric.fox.geek.nz
