I really don't like github and gitorious. Also, as I said I'm not that
familiar with GIT but I don't see why features like forking or such
should be done by a hosting service, aren't these all features of the
VCS itself?


Yes and no. Forking at the hoster side has several advantages. You get a free host for the remote, the forks are categorized and associated with the mainline, the actual changes in the fork are visible for anyone (most importantly for the maintainers of mainline). And you get the forks of several contributors collected in a single place making it easier for people to pick out their favorite changes etc.

Best regards.
