Another open-source communityhttp://wordpress.org is working on integrating their repository with Githubhttp://ma.tt/2014/10/sotw-2014/ for the very reasons you mentioned (Ctrl+F for the mention of github).

WordPress' tool, Trac, is SVN and therefore a bit of a bigger transition IMHO. The work is still ongoing.

There is a lively community that currently exists on Github. Encouraging folks to participate with tools that they are comfortable with is a win for wiki tech.

I would say that this is a smart move and agree with others that focusing on Phabricator as that’s the system with a longer life.
