Ultimately I think github is the way to go. If that can't work, the other choice is for infra to create a repo per committer (github model). Git's strength is that of a distributed version control system. We keep trying to centralize it. The whiteboard don't belong in the same repo as the core code in the git model IMO. Regarding official whiteboards and github, its interesting. In some ways, IMO, it's better for the ASF. In this way nothing enters an ASF repo until it officially becomes part of the project and its better for me as I can quickly play and just commit code without worrying about headers, etc. Then we deal with those things prior to an import.
