I would be perfectly happy with killing the GitHub mirrors if it meant we got a read/write Apache hosted Git repository. It would facilitate managing the Git patches as it would remove the step of having to deal with Pull Requests submitted via GitHub. I think its more important to have the read/write Git than it is to also have a GitHub mirror and support Pull Requests from GitHub. Even thought Pull Requests and Forking on GitHub would greatly improve workflows, specifically handling code reviews for code patches. We can do that in JIRA, but it wouldn't be as efficient as GitHub due to the lack of being able to comment on specific lines of code right in the repository browser viewer. Not to mention the ease with which you can integrate Pull Requests via the GitHub GUI. -omar
