As Bruce pointed out relying on any single source will mean a repeat of 
the same problem down the road.  There is nothing magic about github, 
and we don't know who will buy them in the future.

Although this outage has been annoying, its the worst I can remember in 
10 years.  Not like it happens every day.

Perhaps a better solution would be a SVN mirror site, self hosted by one 
of us.  Or at least a site that extracts and posts daily tar balls, so a 
recent snapshot is available for people who just want to use the code.
