Hi all,

there is currently a private discussion about moving the code, website,
wiki and downloads to github, and I think it would be better to move it
here in the open.

Facts:
 - There is already a Stellarium organisation on github

Pros:
 - sourceforge is currently not reliable, the website and downloads were
down for more than 24h.
 - the bzr project is not maintained since years, it is very slow with our
large project and git is a de-facto standard for all developers
 - this could help attract new developers who are used to github

Cons:
 - launchpad translation feature is very nice so we will still need to use
it (or find an alternative solution)
 - launchpad bug reports is also quite nice
 - moving the website to github would require to recode it without PHP as
github only serves static pages (I think)
 - moving the wiki to github would also require a lot of work

Please add your points here!

Fabien
