I agree. The idea is to safeguard against github going down by storing data in a dht. I don't see why just hosting a repository on https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MaidSafe won't work here.

MaidSAFE doesn't have any releases yet. It would work but the software isn't complete yet.

At 7 years and counting, you can't be sure that anything is around the corner.
