That's both true and not quite true. I think ultimately we'll be
going to that but for the moment we're easing in to it. The document
currently says, in effect, "we strongly prefer GitHub pulls over Trac
for code submissions."

I figure that ultimately it will indeed say "please
only submit code by GitHub" but I don't think we have consensus on
that yet. (If I'm wrong and we do have consensus, someone should feel
free to make that even stronger in the document.)
