Can you be more specific what makes that patch review process easy? Anything

So would just request Gerrit instance for SSG project via the Fedora

solve our obstacles? [*]

[*] You to understand I am not against moving to GitHub. Just trying to identify
    the difference / advantages / improvements, and if some of them would be
    doable without the move to GitHub (less requirements for the time / 
resources
    wrt to actions related with the move)
