I also think github could be good to tinycc.
The obvious reasons were mentioned: Arguably easier and more open collaboration, bug reports and tracking, automatic builds and tests, possibly better exposure to other people, etc.
There's one thing though which github doesn't make easy as far as I know: all the discussions, comments, code reviews, tagging (of issues) are not easy to export as far as I know. The project's wiki pages are in a git repo which the project owns (separate from the project's code), but as far as I know all the text which people enter (other than at commits) is available at most only via some github API. This is a lot of info which would be a shame to lose if github closes its doors tomorrow.
While github is definitely used as the main host for some big projects, and while I maintain some projects on github myself (on my own and with others), I'd be much more comfortable if I knew all discussions/comments/etc are being mirrored to an external host under the project's control, even if only in a read-only format.
FWIW, I know such export tools exist, but I haven't used them and I don't know how good they are.
Overall, I'd vote to move tinycc to github, with the caveat that it'd be nice to also have an external archive of all the discussions, issues, reviews, etc.

Hi,
on Github we could use Travis to run tests after every commit.
We could also use Qemu there to check if the other architectures still
work. It might also serve as an example how to setup a cross development
environment with TinyCC.
Best regards.
