I don't see how the code being on github means you're at anyone's
'whim'. git is a self-contained, distributed scm. If github turns evil,
the worst possible consequence is you just move your git repos to
fedorahosted and twiddle your workflow a bit. It's hardly a bitbucket
situation.

I don't like github being non-free, particularly, but the practical
consequences of that are fairly minor.
