I want to raise the point again, that the separate git server is painful for translators which is the main reason that I dislike it. (see http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-i18n/2010-July/msg00075.html and follow ups) Basically the point is that if we allow core modules to be hosted elsewhere we can shut down the GNOME Translation Project as it exists now completely because our whole quality work with coordinators and reviewers will become obsolete. GNOME has a very long and good tradition of high-level and consistent translations which would get lost. The point is not that important for clutter which probably doesn't contain many user visible strings but if we they yes here it will be difficult to say no with other modules. Needless to say that I of course in general like the idea of having clutter as a core module.
