My question as well. While I won't lose any sleep should we give up on bzr and move to git, I am very concerned regarding further fracturing of the emacs ecosystem if that means using a platform which is using non-free tools. Git != GitHub. Lets have all official emacs packages use git, but on
gnu.org. If we start moving things out to various other locations, before long, we will have forks and different versions all over the place, leaving an envrionment where only the determined and experienced emacser has any hope - all new users will run a mile.
