No I'm not. It (i.e "maven", "svn" then "git") was there when I came here. It could change but that's another discussion that will probably never happen as people just assume that everyone should use GitHub on its own (as contrasted to through being an Apache committer).

The inconvenience is the invalid assumption that everyone should use GH even though that was never discussed. > And you want the rest of us to not use the tool because of that? Where did you get that conclusion from? Is GH more than a convenience tool like Travis, Coveralls or SonarQube? Or is it a core part of the work flow like "git"? If so, when did this happen? Where is the decision recorded?
