Funny, just a while ago was pondering on what a "github for hackers" would look like.

My personal answer would be: it should be a hackable webapp, where users can implement or tweak features at will.

The ingredients being the usual:

- a plugin system

- a function hooks system

- many, many available options that are never taken away (i.e. breaking API changes).

When was the last time you used a webapp even remotely like that?

Yep, we're thinking about this alike! My answer will be: an emacs-like git hosting experience.
