Inkscape on GitHub

I would like us to have a discussion about our presence on GitHub. I'd prefer a high bandwidth meeting because I believe this to be far more efficient but agreed to kick this off in written form.

The story is very short: we are already present on GitHub, but we're not doing anything with it. The organization there consists of Ted alone and the Inkscape repository is not a code mirror but only a readme to redirect people to GitLab.

I want to

• become a member/admin of the organization
• turn the Inkscape repository into a code mirror to do additional CI work

I do not want to

• take anything away or shift anything from GitLab to GitHub
• open up issues, discussions, wikis, ... whatever

That means if I get my wish and do stuff on GitHub, nothing will change for anybody else in the project who is not interested in doing something on GitHub, the status quo is kept.

A good part of the coming debate will revolve around politics about what companies/platforms/... we want to work with, so I expect that at the end of it all we will have a better understanding/self-given guidance that we'll likely iterate further upon in regards to other platforms as well (e.g. Discord, Twitter, ...). But let's keep it simple and start with one thing at a time.
