Diaspora is still experimental and not on-par with things such as Google+ or Facebook, but gitorious is a good alternative. So even on a technical level, this choice reeks. Also because by working with e.g. the gitorious team, one could have also found more bugs / asked for some features which would then be fixed in an open-source product, benefiting the community at large. So there's an indirect contribution too to the well-being of everyone. gitorious is not an good alternative. It's slow, buggy, and does not support the common operations that GitHub does. I can't view images from the gitorious viewer. I can't view raw files. I've never managed to get in contact with the gitorious team. As far as I can tell, they've fallen off the face of the earth. Ask Richard Hughsie why he moved colord from gitorious to GitHub. There's good reasons we're trying to get away from it.
I know I am going slightly (but only slightly) off-topic, but would you and Richard (whom I Cc'ed) care to give me a short list of items you find annoying in gitorious? I should have some free time starting November, and some good Rails experience, so maybe I can submit some patches a few months from now. I am involved in some other projects too, so I don't know about my priorities, but I'll keep this under my radar.
