Even when I like Github and use it for personal projects (and personal
clones of some repositories), I have the same opinion and think that
GNOME should not support privative software.

If what we want is a nicer/better merge request interface, there are
alternatives like Gitlab [1], but that would conflict with the
established workflow (Bugzilla + git-bz). But having to host it in
the GNOME infrastructure would not automatically take advantage of
the pre-existing forks in Github, which AFAIU would be one of the
positive things of using Github... Probably the best compromise would
be to have an automatic mirror in Github and process the merge
requests out of Github.
