Yep. I should have been more explicit there i guess
Nothing in fedora infrastructure is proprietary. And nothing that the user gets when interacting with our websites is proprietary. But github is certainly proprietary and we are hosting some of our code there (just like many other open source projects). If that seems like something that we wouldn't have done previously then you could see it as a change in policy.
I would say so since this appears to be the first time that Fedora infrastructure developed app is hosted in github.
However, we've never attempted to check if our developers are coding in a proprietary ide or using a non-free os to connect to infrastructure. We've never frowned on people hosting their own code that we use in fedora on sourceforge, github, or other propriety hosting.
As a side note, sourceforge is no longer using proprietary code. http://sourceforge.net/blog/allura-incubator/ I have been looking to package that for Fedora as well. In any case, if this was a deliberate decision to use github, thats fine. A mirror in gitorious might be recommended by policy. Just a suggestion.
