I think this would be a full move to git/github as our primary repo
(as opposed to just a copy) - we need to have one and probably one
authoratative place.

This isn't yet agreed so if people have +/- views please say.

Regarding hg-git plugin I've used it extensively and it works pretty
well -- up to a point. For example I was pushing the ckan hg repo
regularly to github but it stopped working with an error a month or so
ago and has never worked since. Also named branches (that we have used
heavily) don't transfer to git (but bookmarks do) so we'd need to
switch to bookmarks from named branches going forward.
