I am very excited that Github is being considered. It has become something of a standard for open source software these days, for better or worse, it's what most people are using which I think is good for Vim.
For those of you unfamiliar with Git, I HIGHLY recommend reading this free book: http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2 It'll only take an afternoon to read and you can probably skip the sections on Git on the Server if you'd like, but it should provide a very stable foundation to understanding Git. If a dumb front end javascript guy like me can figure it out, you guys should have no problem.
