Dependency on private company is always risky, isn't it? ;-)
I believe this is missing the point: Whether a company is private or public (Github/Microsoft are public, by the way), or whether it's a company or a foundation or some other form of organization or simply an individual does not matter. What matters is whether there are a legal entity / actual people operating the infrastructure that can receive court orders. I doubt the actual outcome would have been much different had this been the Linux Foundation, Free Software Foundation, FreeBSD Foundation, Apache Foundation,... you name it. Gerald
