I won't try to argue against using a local repo for local work; that's
kinda the whole point of git. My argument is that, given a choice
between github and gedaproject for upstreaming geda-related stuff, you
should choose gedaproject, even for stuff you know won't get
mainlined. Why? A centralized location for "all things geda" makes
it easy for others to find geda-related things.
