As stated in previous emails, I absolutely support our use of Github as a |
| 15 |
mirror only and allowing our users a familiar and easy way to contribute. |

This has beared fruit in the form of new developers as well. I cannot |
| 17 |
empirically prove it, but I would suggest that the current uptick in new |
| 18 |
developers is due to Github providing a platform for them to contribute. |

Regarding the events that occured, I think this is a lesson learned. While |
| 21 |
embarrasing for our distro it was not impacting at a code level due to the |
| 22 |
deployment model (mirror only). Many individuals have begun addressing the |
| 23 |
areas that could be improved to ensure it does not happen again. |
