=======================
https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-project/message/4929c54fc37dee78cdff606d4d9cb030

A lengthy discussion touching diverse topics ensued. In the end the
following resolution was accepted with 4 yes votes, 0 no, 0 
abstentions, and 1 lack of response:

"The Gentoo council encourages contributions to Gentoo via manyfold
ways. However, it also recognizes that the usage of Github, being a
closed-source service, poses the danger of data lock-in and should not
be preferred. The question has been posed whether the current usage of
Github is in line with the Gentoo social contract- a question still
open to interpretation.
With this background the council asks for implementation of
* the two-way mirroring of Github pull requests to bugzilla (including
  comments and patches)
* the public archiving of Github repository e-mail notifications
* and the mirroring of Github pull request git branches on Gentoo
  infrastructure 
or functionally equivalent alternatives. The council believes that
this should suffice for all developers to dispell doubts about
adherence to the Gentoo social contract."


The meeting will be continued on next sunday, same time and place.
