Hi - There is an official release policy - http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#policy
It does not include GitHub as a source of official releases. Releases are acts of the Foundation through each PMC. Perhaps that is something to be discussed on legal-discuss@, but that would mean a change to a well established Foundation Policy and would breach the legal shield which protects you as VP, the PMC and the Release Manager.
