Well, this is the very reason why I started this thread.
Fedora packager Bernard Johnson has gone dark, and I am following https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers
in the hope that I may take over (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1342138). The point is to be able to keep doing "yum/dnf install".
The procedure being similar on Debian, I can guarantee you that a clear migration to a git repository (and typically hosted on GitHub, though it doesn't have to) will be welcomed by most packagers.
I'm also a CentOS / Fedora user, glad you're looking into this.
Yes, we emailed Craig and he now has a github account and has control over the github repo. I posted a message from Craig on this list a couple weeks back. He is busy, but still interested in his project. Others are trying to help out now. As you say, github will make that easier.
