Print the guthub web page for any project, its apparently in the page 
wrapper they are using.  I have since read the T.O.S., which explicitely 
says thats not the case, however, it appears nervous folks wanting to 
move a project, cannot delete it from github and must fork it to move 
it.  I am not at all comfy with that prospect, Chris.
 
They also seem to have forked the gimp project and is trying to make it 
run on windows, and apparently charging a fee to download it although I 
have not personally seen that screen since windows isn't allowed on the 
premisis here, and which is blowing up the gimp-user list with support 
questions that they can only counter by telling folks where to get the 
real thing, for free.

This is not a tasty turn of events since github changed hands a while 
back.

Make/draw your own conclusions, Chris, I am just playing the canary in a 
coal mine gas alarm system.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
