That's what happens with single points of failure. And the reason
VCSes even went DVCS in the first place.
Bugzilla for issue tracking is independent of Github.
Yea, it certainly does have that going for it. And I have no real big
objections to bugzilla. It would be nice, though, if it were better (and
more cleanly) integrated with GitHub/GitLab/BitBucket/etc., and if its
data were all distributively stored in git.
Oh, also, just in case I wasn't clear, when I said "if we had been
commoditizing and decentralizing..." I meant "we" as in the worldwide
programmer community in general, not the D community specifically.
