LOL, okay, you have a point there.
If you really insisted on having Vimpulse somewhere more "cool" than Assembla, I'd suggest Gitorious, not GitHub. Not only because Gitorious is libre, but also because it's project-centric, not person-centric as GitHub.
You can set up organizations in GitHub now, which you can use as a project centric location
Anyway, I personally really like the mailing list model -- when you send patches to a mailing list, more people have chance to look at it and chime in when they have anything to say on the matter. This is a good point, and it has its merits. However, have you ever used the network browser in GitHub? It makes it really easy for people to have multiple forks of a project, and if somebody happens to create a patch that, for whatever reason, isn't merged in, it makes it really easy to find. (I've used it many times to find patches for abandoned projects).
I was mostly teasing about moving to GitHub, but I really like it. It's a great place for open source to live, and it's really well done. I don't think it's overrated :-)
