Good job, you aren't the only one. Huggle team is using it for quite
some time. To be honest I still feel that github is far superior to
our gerrit installation and don't really understand why we don't use
it for other projects too.

The GitHub's pull requests are more compliant with original git
philosophy of Linus, see this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XpnKHJAok8 and would be sufficient
replacement to our current "git-review" mechanism, which is very
complex and unfriendly to new developers who probably find it very
difficult to use.
