But the choice of tool matters. One of the reasons why IONs (RFC 4693) failed was because the implementation using SVN and manual posting to the web site was very clumsy. It would be very, very much easier to implement RFC 4693 using GitHub.

I just quickly re-read RFC 4693. It was quite well thought out.
