Hi, Assuming we get the git hub mirrors up and working there nothing stopping anyone from using github to supply patches and diff in the usual way. A git hub pull request can be converted directly into a patch file and applied easily.
There's one outstanding issue in how do we close pull requests, I asked this before but no one seem to know the answer. I don't think it would be possible to use github for the "official" whiteboards as it brings up a number of issues for infra and the ASF ie knowing who contributed, licensing issues etc etc basically the normal issues for bit of donated code. Thanks, Justin
