Popping in to #gentoo-infra and chatting with the folks there may get you a faster response. As far as I know, we accept pull requests from the GitHub mirror *or* a standard `git format-patch` e-mail. We do have a social contract[1] which indicates that we will not depend on proprietary software. That said, the GitHub mirror is there for convenience; I'm betting part of why we use it on the side is because it already meshes well with Git to begin with and can be a good 'gateway' for new contributors. We also accept patches on the gentoo-dev ML or (depending on the developer) personal e-mails or Bugzilla bugs. You might want to check out a few pages on the wiki regarding how we handle contributions, or pop in #gentoo-proxy-maint on Freenode.
