There is no "official" preference. We just setup the mirror on github 
because people took the time to do so. If gitorious has the same feature 
we could set it up there also for people that prefer gitorious.

We should update the docs on the website to explain creating a personal 
github repo using the githib mirror feature, rather than jsut pushing 
the repo back.

Another idea is to pull from the github repo and push to the OE repo.

Can someone comment on how the github repo is updates from the main OE repo?
