Just my thoughts:
I started to use github deeper recently and at the same time of étoilé
github switch; for what I seen, it is easier to collaborate especially
for the feature: "leave a comment on a issue/commit/etc", the system
sends email to the people that are collaborating saying that a comment
was done on a particular thing instantly.
This is fantastic to me, beacause I can avoid to launch my mailer, write
a mail for minor requests/doubts, send it to a mailing list, wait the
mail server to show the mail on the mailing list, wait for a reply.
The fork feature is great too, and the new gnustep ithem is on github
too (my repo), so anyone can collaborate forking it and sending patches
to the main repo. For e.g, on the the there's a branch I created named
"dbuskit", it trys to interface the theme to the ubuntu menu server
using dbuskit, following the examples inside dbuskit.
It is quite experimental and actually in "stand by" due of lack of time
but as I said patches are welcomed. (The most complete branch is
nssearchfield)

Hey guys,
With the recent move of Etoile to github I've been thinking about a
similar move for gnustep.
There are a number of reasons for this:
0)
It is possible to check out and commit to a github repository using
SVN and HG. This is #0 since it will be a primary objection to such a
move.
1) GitHub is a very well known platform
2) it would allow code review of patches to be done more easily
3) we could host both the wiki and the website on GitHub.
4) GitHub users could easily fork our repository, reuse and contribute
back more easily (we would of course still need FSF papers)
Please give me your thoughts on this. I think it's a good idea for the
technical reasons I've given above.
