I don't know but isn't it contra productive and actually a lot more work to maintain the sources on a variety on source control platforms?
We end up having SWORD source trees on Github, Bitbucket and Launchpad and eventually on any other system that will come up.
For all of those we need people to maintain the sources otherwise we will have a mess of different sources version and implementations.
In my opinion, the main and official sources of SWORD have to be maintained by responsible people from Crosswire.
And it has to be clear that Crosswire will have and is in control of the official sources. I don't actually care which source control system is used for that, though I think that Subversion is the greatest common divisor because all other DVCSs can bi-directional access Subversion.

If I could have forked the swig bindings, and checked in my changes, then whether or not they became incorporated in the official version, they would be readily available for anyone to find, evaluate and/or fix.
