Jeremy Blosser is paying for it out of pocket. It's an old box, and it
doesn't have a whole lot of horsepower. Moving off of those boxes would
save him actual dollars every month. Moving to github would give us
additional redundancy, since it'd basically be a "cloud."

Ultimately, it'd still be git, just from
git AT github.com/sourcemage/grimoire.git instead of
scm.sourcemage.org/grimoire.git

That's probably the only substantial difference, not counting a provided
issue tracking thing, instead of self-hosted chiliproject (which isn't
as good, but is stupid easy to maintain)
