While trying to figure out the process having it on a github org was an advantage for a number of reasons for example we started out with a small set of packaging repositories and added as needed, creating these is a lot quicker on github, adding stackforge repositories would have been slower, we've also renamed a couple of repositories and deleted others

In future as things settle down and we get a better view of whats needed, I'm open to moving to stackforge.
