Right. A better analogy would be eating only animals you have slaughtered yourself.

(And the answer to the question in the subject line can be reduced to “No. But use it with care.” For which we have a whole WG. Why are we discussing this here?)
Strongly disagree. I think the answer is "yes, as soon as
practicable". And I'd argue that that WG should not exist with its
current charter - there should be no presumption that GitHub is
appropriate for IETF or that it should be favored in any way. The very
fact that IETF is favoring a commercial provider of any service seems
both dangerous to IETF and completely inappropriate.
(though I suppose the right thing to do procedurally is file an appeal,
it seems to make more sense to discuss it here first in case my concerns
can be addressed.)
