[Owncloud] Gitorious vs Github

From my point of view we have much more important topics than a discussion on gitorious vs github.

- continous intregration
- more php unit tests
- js unit tests
- overall test management (looks like the RCs for OC4 have never been tested)

And most important : configure buggenie properly. As I wrote many times, buggenie itself is not bad tool (maybe not the best) it just needs some love. I hope we find some time after the bugfix releases for OC4
