yeah, we can easily make a mirror at github using
http://svn2github.com/ , as an example

My problem with google is absence of ... search function. There is also no 
statistic etc. 

The service is just too primitive.

tbh, if we talk of transition to git it may be good idea to look at the 
bitbucket too and some tools from atlassian like jira (was free for approved 
open source projects). btw other thing is, that in portage (support for git 
based portage tree added to portage by Z.Medico) we may work with git too like 
in case of funtoo (http://www.funtoo.org/Portage_Tree) and regen2 - but I may 
went too far with this :)
in general i like this idea of a git based mirror.

I search just fine on my local machine but if you want to setup a mirror on 
github which automatically syncs that is fine.

My main issue with git is that I have a much harder time using it (yes still) 
and I have exactly ZERO motivation to get all the "better collaboration" since 
not a single person has ever sent a patch EVER.
