The mirrors to GitHub were really just an interim solution while we got a
read/write Apache hosted Git repository.

I would be perfectly happy with killing the GitHub mirrors if it meant we
got a read/write Apache hosted Git repository.

It would facilitate managing the Git patches as it would remove the step of
having to deal with Pull Requests submitted via GitHub.

I think its more important to have the read/write Git than it is to also
have a GitHub mirror and support Pull Requests from GitHub. Even thought
Pull Requests and Forking on GitHub would greatly improve workflows,
specifically handling code reviews for code patches. We can do that in
JIRA, but it wouldn't be as efficient as GitHub due to the lack of being
able to comment on specific lines of code right in the repository browser
viewer. Not to mention the ease with which you can integrate Pull Requests
via the GitHub GUI.
