Despite my complaining about github, I don't like the idea of moving somewhere else. The current way of working - to use github for storing the tree, and use a custom script for signing+merging - is fine with me. Github has a low barrier to contribution. Almost every open source developer already has a github account. Switching to something self-hosted makes it more difficult for people to contribute. Plus if we have to take the hosting upon ourselves, we have to handle sysadmin work ourselves as well. That's not a good use of the limited manpower available. Also it will be a lot of work to migrate over all the current issues and pulls. I don't look forward to that. I don't see the point of this, sorry.
