I've read a lot of posts on the subject and it seems like it is not necessarily so much a discarding of Kenai as it is simply a desire to move to GitHub due to the broader "network effects" of such a move. And Hudson is not the only well-known Java project talking about moving to GitHub recently -- I've seen it discussed on a few other dev lists that I track. The bar is lowered dramatically for participation in OSS projects when you move to GitHub, and so the number of active participants goes up along with it. Even if Kenai has the ability to use Git as an SCM, its still not GitHub, so the network effect is not (yet) there and thus it is a less attractive option, plain and simple.
