Go is moving to GitHub

It is great to see so many projects moving to git and GitHub in particular. GitHub is incredibly helpful for quickly taking a look at a project and figuring out what areas of a project are still evolving and being actively developed.

"We will use a Google-hosted instance of Gerrit for code reviews."

This is a huge compliment to GitHub, for Google to be moving one of its premier open source projects off of Google Code and onto GitHub.

More importantly, though, this is a significant compliment to the Go community, for Go to uproot itself and move to where the majority of its users are.

You could also say that everyone moving to GitHub is leading to a dangerous centralized monoculture that evaluates software quality based on how well it fits GitHub's conventions.
