Why should we? A vast majority of us are happy GitHub / Facebook /
Twitter / Google users and it's a happy marriage so far (at least for
GitHub). We should clearly distinguish between a service / API and a
data - an openness of a service is entirely different from an openness
of a data or source code.

GNOME developers got the message and they are constantly improving
integration with the open user services with a proprietary code. We
must do the same and better integrate our infrastructure with open
services built with proprietary software (GitHub + Bugzilla, GitHub +
fedmsg, GitHub + fedorahosted).
