 Looks like github just came out with organizations. Would it make sense to
 convert the openstreetmap account to an organization?
 Link to convert is here: https://github.com/account/organizations

Thanks for the heads-up. It seems like the main benefit is unified
account management, which we don't have to deal with since the
openstreetmap account is (still) only for mirroring.

If some people are interested in commiting there it'd be useful to
change it over. But as it is I'd rather have Public Activity on the
right pane of http://github.com/openstreetmap, rather than
Organization members. All other things being equal.

Maybe I've missed something and there are other benefits. Thanks for
the heads-up, in any case.

[OSM-dev] Today's hacking project: GitHub OpenStreetMap mirror

[Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason]

I'm not at the hack weekend but today I moved the
josm/openstreetmap-website mirrors to a new account on GitHub:

http://github.com/openstreetmap

I also set up a mirror of Merkaartor (whose primary hosting is on
Gitorious).

This makes it easy for GitHub users to monitor progress on these
projects, and makes it easy to develop/update patches against them.

If anyone's interested in having something mirrored from
OpenStreetMap's SVN (or even converted), tell me. I'll try to make it
happen.
