Haha. You beat me to it!
I went from 999 to 992. I guess I should have kept my mouth shut, but it was worth it. But tbh, I have nothing against PHP; it was just a joke.
Rasmus gave a talk yesterday and I asked if they were switching to github. He said they'd likely switch to git (it's now happening, apparently), but not github because it can't do ACLs and the PHP project has thousands of people who need commit access to various places.
Was there any official statement stating that they would switch to GitHub? All I see is that they're switching to git.
PHP should switch to Django instead.

Git appears to be fast becoming the standard DVCS. Is there any reason that all reasonably well-run projects should not be using git? GitHub seems vastly superior to BitBucket, and git itself seems pretty much isomorphic to hg (albeit with worse syntax). (This ignores darcs, bzr, etc., but those never seemed terribly competitive for mindshare.) Furthermore, the network effects (with pull requests on Github, not havin…
I'm a pious hg user - even gave git a good run (mostly because of Github). I can't get over how amazing mercurial patch-queues are. Big win. I love mercurial's easy plugin development and hooks (thank you Python); I love how many awesome plugins exist for mercurial. On and on and on.
If you were doing a sales pitch, what would you show that hg has over git? What are some specific plugins that ease your development or release process? What are some real-world advantages of the hg patch-queue over how git handles pulls?
I'm honestly curious. I just haven't seen anything to sell me on why hg is so much better than git (or even the other way around).

Wonder if they knew about GitHub Organizations? https://github.com/blog/674-introducing-organizations

What treffer said. It'll be like the old days of sourceforge, just better and simpler. I love how easy it is to commit to projects on github. Also love the idea of a centralized place to follow all your favorite projects. If linux can be on github i would think php could as well.

You can just as easily use it over HTTPS and use your github login (which is how a lot of SVN repos are setup).
SF, BitBucket, Google Code, et. all are no easier or harder than GitHub for getting access. You have to register for all of them and setup your credentials for the repo on all of them.
