[Building Sakai] Curiosity on use of GitHub

[William Karavites]

Sounds Good! 

Just from using it over the last few weeks, it just seemed that the switch should make things easier for everyone.

There is a plan in place to migrate Sakai to GitHub. Much of it is already in place, I believe. Subversion and Git are being synchronized. At a future release (perhaps Sakai 10), the community might fully switch. Meanwhile, we get the best of both worlds.

I just started getting more involved with projects on GitHub and started to wonder why the Sakai community doesn't put their code on there? 



    * It is extremely well known and used all over. 
    * Chances are you've used Git before. 
    * It allows automated build testing (Travis-Ci) 
    * Easier access for the community and other people to work with it 


        * With access control of course 
    * 
The web interface along with the multitude of Git programs allow a much bigger flexibility in contributions. 

I was just curious about this.
