I agree with this sentiment.  And to the extent that being distributed
is a good thing (and I believe it is), a good governance model and ease
of contribution matters more-so than hosting location and to that end,
git.trustedfirmware.org / reviews.trustedfirmware.org (which I see lets
you use GitHub to sign-in/auth) makes sense to me.
