We should pick our fights, on the other hand, GitHub has released more
open source code and tools than the gitorious community. We accept
money from Google for the GSoC's every year and I see no complaints.
Everything is a matter on how you look at things really.

As I mentioned before, if you want a gitorious mirror, feel free to
start working on it, I fully support the idea, I'm just not interested
in investing the time on it myself because I see no much value in it
(on the other hand, I see the value on running our own instance).
