Frankly, I don't think the Board has any business in this discussion
yet.  There are known pain points in providing this (and switching SCMs
all together), the benefits to Fedora are little to none at the moment,
and it can be hosted elsewhere.

Your insistence at having them declare something one way or another
seems to be nothing more than whining because you aren't getting your
way.
