Great!
I would like to join in and I am going to host my lib/framework on github too 
with the option and goal of integration with openLilyLib and/or later lilypond.
This morning I created a github account, so I am not familiar with its services 
(beside the usage of GIT). What are you missing regarding the issue tracker?

Best,
Jan-Peter
