Pawel, I use GitHub, mainly due to lack of HTTPS support on SF.net and problems with authentication across strict firewalls. So, I created SOCI organisation with SOCI repo (ATM out of date) at: https://github.com/SOCI The idea came up when Maciej decided to leave the project. I assumed SOCI would go uncoordinated ad-hoc development based on contributions streamed from folks using SOCI. So, my motivation was to use GitHub as simple and friendly platform for easy exchange of contributions based on forks and pull requests. I found this mechanism is easy for contributors and also very quick for maintainers to review and accept patches. I don't think I ever suggested this idea officially, I didn't want to force any revolutions myself I have been waiting for some resolution about lack of the project leader :) Unfortunately, I've been too busy with other projects anyway, although I have a few things to get done in SOCI, numerous patches to apply, etc. I hope it clarifies SOCI precence in GitHub. Long story short, I don't mind the current situation, but if majority of SOCI contributors ask to move to https://github.com/SOCI, I don't mind it either.
