Even if I did partake in the modern github style of code distribution, how many packages have issues where the "maintainers" inherited the package and really haven't dug deep enough in to the code to see how it really works. They have issues that sit around for YEARS, and when someone says "this sucks, this is broken and could be better", and the githubian response is typically a dismissive "Nothing is stopping you from making a PR".
Also, "nothing is stopping you from making a fork." Which is what you would have to do in the face of inactive maintainers regardless of where or how the project was hosted. This is not a github problem or a big-corporation problem, it's a people problem. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
