I don't think Github is the right answer here - we've got our own tools,
let's use them - but I don't think the situations are comparable in that
Github didn't organize the event, did not choose the subject technologies,
and is not offering prizes under the IETF banner as enticements to IETF
participants to work on things that aren't IETF work items but that they're
trying to get picked up.  So, I don't think they're that similar.  (Did
nobody really think about this?)
