Not part of an MVP, but thought it might be something to consider later. Might be nice to have a network graph coming from a project stub similar to opscode's cookbook-repo. Not sure about that.

Would also mean folks would need to authenticate using github, so maybe that's putting the setup bar a little high (not to mention complexity of the app).

Anyhow, just a thought. If github allowed repo ownership transfer via the api, that might be a better solution (no need to authenticate each user, just create repo with a bot and give them the repo), but github doesn't currently allow this.

See: http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/forks/#create-a-fork
