Thanks Spencer, I've added that as a note, copying from 2418:

+A choice to use GitHub is regarded as equivalent to the formation of a design
+team (see Section 6.5 of {{!RFC2418}}) provided that the work uses a public
+repository.  That is, the output of any activity using GitHub needs to be taken
+to the Working Group mailing list and subject to approval, rejection or
+modification by the Working Group as with any other input.
