Progress today with GitHub is fine - all the power to you. Like I said, I think pull requests are not that important IMO. I also mentioned that all of the Git->SVN stuff is a crappy experience in general.
I’m not really talking about just random contributors that occasionally send us a couple line changes. I could already pretty easily pull in peoples changes from GitHub. I’m talking about future committers. And for committers, working between SVN and GIT is fairly annoying.
