Hi,

Is it possible to move development to Github?

Sure it's possible.

Why do you think it would be worthwhile ?

I don't care for Github, but I'm all for Git

Distributed development made "easy". I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in cherry-picking and pulling from your tree. It would make new features and bug fixes easier to toss and back and forth and tweak before Chuck even had to look at it.

I'm aware of the general arguments for DVCS over centralised VCS - I was wondering specifically what advatages siranth thought he/we would have by moving en-masse to github.

(my personal use/pref is for hg)

Sorry, I'm just a drifter who happened to overhear this conversation.

IMO it would be a big mistake not to move the code to github. That's where almost all small scale OSS development is going on, and it would be easy for ppl like me to send you pull requests for bugfixes, because most devs already have github accounts.

Pretty language you've got there by the way. See you if you choose to swing by github.

I agree. I think having the project on Github could provide some exposure.
