Actually, is there a way for maintainers that don't want to have their module on Github to opt out of this mirroring process?
While I too am surprised that GNOME didn't choose to mirror on gitorious first, I don't think it's inherently bad that they're mirroring on github as long as it's just used for mirroring. You can think of it as another way/place to spread Free Software. My question: can't we *also* mirror on gitorious? In addition, if git.gnome.org really dies, can at least have a trusted second copy ? Cheers! James
