Do you really, really _need_ to "deprecate, cleanup, and simplify a lot" in order to stop mirroring tomorrow?! Start doing new minor releases on GitHub a month from now? FWIW, I have asked for specifics many times, but am still unaware of any serious obstacles on the way to those goals.

AFAICT, there is just lack of shared goals (or shared priorities) rather than serious obstacles on the way of achieving those two specific goals.

    Thank you for doing this analysis! I have been begging the Project to
    drop all mirrors for a long time now. I failed to convince others that
    the associated embarrassment and waste of time are just not worth the
    benefits. Maybe your observations will be the last straw...

    FWIW, I am quite sure, and has been making that suggestion for several
    years now. GitHub is far from perfect, but using its release posting
    features (correctly) will dramatically decrease our release overheads
    and delays. This migration is not trivial, and I have failed to
    convince
    others that it is worth their time to start migrating.

    Alex.
