Yes, thanks to Christian Walde' (Mithaldu) for setting up the mirroring and recently adding all the current SF repos to GitHub as well (pdl-linearalgebra, pdl-io-hdf5, etc.).

Sure, I'll try my hand at a couple and then take what I learned from those to apply them to the others. I was thinking that starting with PDL::IO::GD might work nicely since that might involve also creating an Alien::GD.
