Re: [science-iwg] Using github issues

[Jonah Graham <jonah@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Christopher,

Thanks for pointing us at that bug report.

I think one key thing while still on Hudson is that there is no
support for GitHub pull request triggers. Personally, I could be
persuaded to go one way or the other on gerrit vs github pull
requests, but it is pretty non-negotiable that changes be tested
before being applied to master.
