I'm fine either way - though moving to GitHub certainly makes
sense as it has momentum - whereas SF.net has been stagnating and
not getting any faster for quite some time now.

My only concern / request is that we transfer and/or clean up
(wholesale) the sf.net bug tracker before we move to GH. It'd be
a disservice to our users if we just ignored or mass-closed those
issues in the transition to GH.

best,
