Precisely.  I suspect it has to do with deleting /dev since that was the
home for the permissions key that allowed us to edit:

http://openlibrary.org/dev.json?v=8
http://openlibrary.org/permission/librarians.json
http://openlibrary.org/usergroup/librarians.json

I'd need to chat with people to really be like "Yes let's move to Github

OK.  If it doesn't happen -- and perhaps even in the interim -- it'd
probably be worth adding Charles and any other interested parties to the
"librarians" group.  The nice thing about Github is that you don't need to
explicitly authorize wiki editors typically.  Anyone with a Github account
can edit and help with the maintenance.
