While I don't hold the same position, I understand the objection of some who are opposed to using GitHub. Still, it seems the lack of an accepted issue tracker is a bit of a problem for us. At least some people seem to be using the GitHub tracker[1] currently, so can we consider that the official issue tracker until someone presents a more acceptable alternative?
If someone wants to donate a small server somewhere, I expect there's sufficient skill on this list that we could run our own infrastructure (git repo, issue tracker of some kind, wiki(?), and mailing list) so as to be free of non-free providers and to be off the Fedora infrastructure, as Richard has previously said is a goal.

That's fine with me. (In fact I remember planning to say this in the CONTRIBUTING.md file but I guess I never got around to it.) I'm still planning on looking into a git-based issue tracking solution as was once or twice discussed by Bradley. (Bradley might have further comments in six months or so when ....)

I've recently had the same thought, following that discussion about gitorious vs. github - before asking for help from others though I might make an initial attempt to do some of this myself (partly for the personal skill-acquisition value).

I haven't supported any of these specific services myself, but I have a fair amount of sysadmin experience on the resume. I'd be happy to volunteer my efforts where needed.
