I can see the benefits of enabling low friction for contributions. It 
just seems that with the recent restrictions that GitHub was forced to 
introduce, the frictions are not quite as low for some parts of the 
community.

You can of course say that this does not matter that much yet in 
practice — IMO it’s prudent for the IETF community to rethink our 
dependencies on external platforms.
