Note that I don't think that darcs, in and of itself, is a bad system. But there are more than enough DCVSes out there, and we can use one less of them.I think it is a good idea, it crossed my mind too. Also github is a good environment for cooperating. I think the darcs repo should live for some time while we double-commit. If no one objects, I'll try to do it quite soon.
Sounds good. I have a preference for a canonical git repo at c-l.net, although a pointer from the c-l.net web page to one on github would be ok. What I'd like us to avoid is that mess where there are a dozen github repos for the same library, and no one knows which one is canonical. And I think we should still provide tarballs.
I don't really get github's additional structure on top of vanilla git usage, and am not that excited about learning it. But I would be happy to continue to submit patches in the old school way, through 'git email'.
