I don't find Github better at all. One is a centralized source code
hosting platform, the other is a centralized Python package publishing
platform.
In the rare case where the package is hosted elsewhere (e.g. on a
personal/project home page) then we should use that*, but I have no
real preference between github/bitbucket/etc and PyPi other than
PyPi packages often being more "polished".
* Usually**, such pages just link to PyPi.
** See "python-cram" for a counter-example.
