+1 on mirroring.

There is an ecosystem around github that I for one find rather useful
for releaseme [1], where I use a bunch of stuff to conduct static
analysis of the code and CI it. This is even more hadny considering
releaseme is written in ruby, so if one wanted to do the same stuff on
jenkins (which one could do) the sysadmins would have to maintain a
ruby stack for one repo which isn't even a product in of itself.
