Yep, I am personally happy with github and think it would be a good move for Genode. Like I said, I was just playing devil's advocate with the intention of making sure the decision was as informed as possible :)

Hi Wes,
Linus was actually a little displeased with github for _managing_ the larger projects, see here: http://blueparen.com/node/12
There was also a decent rant thread from him about it somewhere but I'm having trouble locating it now.
thanks for the link. I can understand Linus Torvald's point as he has established a ridig and well-tuned flow of pull requests for his project. Having every contributor posting issues and pull requests to the mainline repository is obviously not going to work. I hope that the Github developers will listen to his critique because otherwise the solution won't scale to projects at the size of the Linux kernel. That said, I don't foresee this becoming a problem for Genode in the short (and mid) term.
Cheers Norman
