It seems gitorious has been recently acquired by gitlab and would be shutting down by May[1]. How about setting a read-only mirror on github instead?

Not github, gitlab please.
github is not free software and we are a GNU project. Individual users are fine to use any git hosting site they want but even for unofficial mirrors, we need to utilize free software, so until Launchpad gains git <wink>, gitlab's MIT license will do the trick.
