Sounds good.  I have a preference for a canonical git repo at c-l.net,
although a pointer from the c-l.net web page to one on github would be
ok.  What I'd like us to avoid is that mess where there are a dozen
github repos for the same library, and no one knows which one is
canonical.  And I think we should still provide tarballs.

I don't really get github's additional structure on top of vanilla git
usage, and am not that excited about learning it.  But I would be happy
to continue to submit patches in the old school way, through 'git email'.

Cheers,
