This is a powerfull service, and could lead more people to be interested into the LTB project. I think it could be easier to keep redmine as the main issues tracker. Because this server hosts website, packages, mailing lists, and others things that would not be stored onto github. Also, be carefull, the redmine is referenced by search engines (issues, annonces, etc.). If Github becomes the main tracker, it could be hard to keep the referencement, by building 301 redirections onto github pages for each redmine's issue. +1 on SVN migration tools Regards, Thomas.
