One other bit of workflow that would be blocked if there was a switch to GitHub 
today:

* On the tracker, we have long running conversations, sometimes spanning years. 
  We need to be able to continue those conversations even though the original 
participants may not have Github accounts (also, if they do have a Github 
account, we'll need to be able to link to the corresponding BPO account).  

* I believe some of the accounts are anonymous or have pseudonyms.  Am not sure 
how those can be migrated, we know very little about the participant except for 
their recurring posts.
