Getting notifications of open pull requests to the maintainers listed in the DOAP file would also be good, so each maintainer can decide whether or not to integrate one or just direct.Hi, please do not do this by default. I do not have any Github account, neither I'm planning to have any anytime soon. I prefer the GNOME way, not the Github way. If Github mirrors are getting so much trouble, why not kill them once for ever? It was a surprise to get the mirror on Github the months back for me, and if it doesn't work even now, then maybe the idea of the mirrors wasn't the best and might be reverted. It feels odd to have any Github specific files in the GNOME repositories of the GNOME projects too. Aka if you want to setup Github, then setup it in Github, not in GNOME. (Yeah, I know the meaning of the 'mirror' word.)
I agree with this. Having a GitHub-specific file cluttering the top-level of every repo doesn't seem very nice, nor scalable. At the very least I think the contributing file shouldn't be worded specifically for GitHub. Cheers -- Ross Lagerwall
