Your sister comment had another project to share based on IPFS: https://radicle.xyz/

One thing that seems clear is that there needs to be a standard interchangeable format for storing PRs and issues, so that it's not just the point of origin that's decentralized, but the data itself (in case the maintainers vanish).

I'm not really sure how to go about that sort of thing either myself or as a community effort but I'd appreciate any advice from the HN community.

I use Artemis for issue tracking, and that uses maildir (a widely supported standard). I compose issues with Emacs message-mode and render them to HTML using mhonarc.
