Its sad that this got completely ignored by the members of this discussion,
the argument is very valid.

</span>There is a big FLOSS project I spend my daily work for, called OpenStack. \
Given its target, contributions comre from companies and certainly normal users are \
not too interested about it and even more about how it is developed. Despite this, it \
has a strong manifesto with interesting values:<br> <a \
href="https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Open" rel="noreferrer" \
target="_blank">https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Open</a><br> <br>
and that extends to the infrastructure too. Leaving aside the usage of launchpad for \
bugs (there is a replacement which is advanced state of development), guess what? \
Infra team has an own git, contributions go to the internal gerrit. Github is just a \
mirror and I didn't hear anyone screaming or complaining about loss of \
contributions.<br> <br>
Now, if they can do that, why can't we do it?<br>
<br>
Ciao<br>
