Yeah, I could see github's flow being nice here for proposing

badges, etc... but somehow it feels strange to me to directly depend on
them in this way.
Ricky E had some good points in channel which I'll re-post here for
posterity:
re: using github for badges, I think it'd be neat if we could get to that
point (but like nirik said, probably something to talk about after the
freeze). I'm wondering if we couldn't either 1) Just have a cron pull
the badges files from github every few hours, or 2) Set up a tiny POST hook
listener from github and pull based on that.
In either of those cases, we have a local copy of the repo, since we're just
pulling from github
if github goes down, we still have a copy of it for use in infra.
So, I guess I'd say lets do a lockbox01 repo for now, and
reevaluate
after freeze is over?
Agreed. I've setup a lockbox01 repo for now.
