On the thread someone wanted to add something to the manual, but didn't
have SVN access. The admin wasn't getting email, and thus couldn't grant
the new account. The material was not added the to manual.
If the manual was on github, it could have been forked, branched, content
added, pull request made. End of story. So we do want the features of
github.
