[DISCUSS] Moving to gitbox

Infra now offers read/write access to github via a service called
'gitbox'[1]. PMCs have the option to join the service and then make
use of whichever github features they want (like PRs).

Thoughts ?

Well, infra can SELECTIVELY enable various GitHub features.   For CXF, we told them NOT to enable the GitHub issues or Wiki, but those are options if you feel they are useful.   CXF has always used JIRA and Confluence and moving off them now would be difficult and, until we got a better feel for the gitbox integration, adding additional bug trackers (aka: enabling issues) just seemed like more work for the project.   It is something that can be enabled later if wanted.   Basically, baby steps, one step at a time.  

Basically, the main benefits are:

1) Direct push to GitHub 

2) Ability to manage pull requests directly in the GUI.  That includes using the merge button and close buttons and such.  No funky “this closes ####” commits needed.

It becomes a read/write github repository, so all features of github are
available instead of just the hosting.
Mainly, this allows using PR and merging them as you would do for any
github repo.

Very good question actually as this is not detailed in the proposal.

CXF already switched to gitbox and what it allows me to do is work with 
github like I do with any of my own repositories.
So I can push directly to the github repo and also use the github UI to 
close or merge PRs or for example directly edit a readme in the github UI.

I think I already sent an e-mail about this while ago (when gitbox has been 
proposed by infra).
