Thanks for the heads-up. It seems like the main benefit is unified
account management, which we don't have to deal with since the
openstreetmap account is (still) only for mirroring.

If some people are interested in commiting there it'd be useful to
change it over. But as it is I'd rather have "Public Activity" on the
right pane of http://github.com/openstreetmap, rather than
"Organization members". All other things being equal.

Maybe I've missed something and there are other benefits. Thanks for
the heads-up, in any case.
