In my day job, I happen to maintain a huge GitHub mirror of a large open source code repository where the upstream has not yet moved to Git. Unfortunately, what happens is that people submit pull requests against the read-only mirror, but the upstream maintainers rarely if ever look at the pull requests. We end up closing most of the pull requests with a message that says "Contact upstream directly and try to get your patches to them." I also think it would be non-trivial to map Fedora users to GitHub accounts, or to keep said information in sync. -- Jared Smith
