I'm actually a little torn on this one.  I'm fine with keeping the
"master" on Gentoo in the sense that this is where the rsync tree gets
generated.  However, gitbub has a lot of tools like pull requests that
could potentially improve workflow, especially for things like proxy
maintainers.  So, letting those teams work more outside of Gentoo and
just push their changes into Gentoo might make sense.

Perhaps github should be viewed as a widely-shared overlay that gets
automatic updates from the main tree in the master branch (or whatever
we call it).  You can work on a branch in github, get it where you
want it to be, and then push it to Gentoo pretty easily.  When I don't
have access to an upstream repository I often just push a copy to a
fork on Github just to make my own life easier.
