+1 to github and hopefully abandoning the sending of patchsets to the mailing list for review.

As the SSG development community grows, so does the need for matured tools and workflow. There's been some discussion of moving to GitHub.

On the pro side:
    * Easier to signup and request commit access
* Most committers likely to have GitHub account for other projects anyway
    * Easier for community to fork SSG code (e.g. gitmachines project)
    * Dramatically better ticketing system
            - labels
            - user-friendly GUI
- git commit hooks (put ticket # in patch title, auto resolves ticket) - multi-developer collaboration on tickets easier through @name calls * "Pull Request" concept: Patches centrally managed and merged, ensures no missed patches on mailing list * Simplified branching (e.g. allows a -stable and -dev branch). Possible on FedoraHosted, not as intuitive * Increased reliability of infrastructure (especially latency of git pulls)

On the cons:
    * Slight developer hassle to migrate SSH keys
* "Not hosted by RedHat" -- concern from some that migrating from a redhat/fedora hosted URL will diminish project brand.

What does everyone think?
