I searched for "github" and didn't see an issue matching this; apologies if i missed a duplicate.
I love the mission of OpenHatch and I'm working on adding projects i'm involved in, but most use
GitHub Issues, which isn't one of the bug trackers available to choose from.
We are planning to move to Github for our source code hosting during this month,
after some reliability issues with Gitorious. However, I'm opposed to using
Github's issue-tracking software (as opposed to either this Roundup install, or
even a hosted free software tracker).
Github in general is not free software. I don't mind this for version control,
since git is free and decentralized. If we ever want to leave Github in the
future, doing so is extremely easy. I don't want to get locked into using Github,
and using their special add-ons, including issue tracking, would increase our
switching costs significantly.
Yes, exactly, paulproteus, my projects use Github Issues and I'd love to add
our issues to our OpenHatch project, but the only available choices for
importing issues are Bugzilla, Google Code, Roundup, and Trac.
I do not care at all what issue tracker OpenHatch itself uses.
