I have renamed the page and started a section for the ongoing discussion
on github vs code.gnucash.org hosting. I have added arguments pro and
con as I see them so far (and what I've read on the list).
Please state your own pro and con ideas as well so we can complete the
full picture. You can do so either directly on the wiki page (but ping
people on the list if you did so) or on the list. I'll add the
additional info in the wiki then.
As for my personal preference, if we can solve the technical issues
regarding our scripting hooks, I'd prefer to move to github as well. As
long as there are multiple active developers working from a cloned git,
we don't have to worry about integrity (each one has his own private
copy of master that can easily be compared if needed). This is inherent
to git. The advantages I see with github is more visibility and a lower
treshold to cloning ("forking" as github calls it), which directly
increases the chance of contributions.
