After some browsing, I've learned that github encourages people to make 
private forks, as a playground or whatever.
That may be fine but doesn't really count as an argument for an 
"official" hosting platform.

That fork does not include the issue list (which could probably be 
added); also github/cygwinports is a github "user account" which, 
according to 
https://help.github.com/articles/what-are-the-different-access-permissions/ 
gives limited flexibility of assigning access rights. I guess as a 
package maintainer, admin rights of the official repository would be 
useful, which is an option with a github "organisation account".
So I see 3 options:
• Yaakov could turn github/cygwinports into an "organisation account" 
and give me admin rights for the mintty repository.
• I could create a dedicated account and repository.
• I could host mintty somewhere else.

My concerns against github are different; I have a strong impression 
that it encourages anarchic project handling,
and I feel the concept of everybody being allowed to create forks and 
submit "pull requests" may not be good for a core project.

Opinions?
