ah, interesting. moving this to git sounds ok to me from a technical viewpoint. i read https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikipedia.org_Portal/Migration_to_gerrit. despite that i am not clear how the current portal maintainers would then activate a proposal e.g. from the discovery team?
It turns out that the other portals were quietly moved to Git in November 2015. I filed https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T135929 about cleaning up the project portals, since they're now being updated in two places, one of which is a decoy, and the various wiki pages on Meta-Wiki don't seem to reflect or acknowledge this at all.
