       The rise of GitHub seems to me one of the strangest things in the world.  I've heard it called "the front page of the FOSS movement"!  But the code for GitHub is not available on GitHub!  It was weird enough when a closed-source proprietary company put themselves in front of an open-source distributed VCS and got traction, but then they were acquired by Microsoft!?  That's like Sauron buying the Shire and charging the hobbits rent on their own land or something.
