As you are already aware, at the SF Zope sprint we used Git and github for our work. The work contained in https://github.com/zopefoundation is by people who have already signed the Zope Foundation contributor agreement.
While the Zope Foundation deliberates on version control, I think it's likely that development will continue using Git and Github. We want to do this in a way that maintains flexibility for code committed to Git to also be committed to svn.zope.org, so it would be helpful to get a list of Name, Email, username for svn.zope.org committers to facilitate the creation of an author mapping file. (Presumably this information is in LDAP or similar.)
We would of course be happy to hand administration rights of the github organization to the Zope Foundation if it was felt to be helpful in ensuring that contributions to that repository counted under the committer agreement.
Please don't try to jump the gun on the process here: you should be thinking of the existing Github branches as merely "scratchpads" for the sprint work, which should be merged into the canonical repository when they are ready. It is not appropriate for a small subset of the community to preempt this kind of choid: "ask forgiveness rather than permission" is *not* going to fly here, and trying to push harder only irritates folks you might otherwise persuade.
