I decide to support Marak event, I'm going to delete all my Emacs extensions on GitHub

After sawing Marak result, I decided to give up GitHub, delete all my repositories on GitHub.

Most part of my repositories are Emacs extensions, so I email here, hope GNU Emacs community has a
simple way to host and upload my extensions code.

I will delete all repositories in 3 days, and only leave on README says "I don't like GitHub's Terms
of Service which will delete your account if you delete your code." Sorry maybe this break my
extensions' users experience. But I need to express my attitude to this movement with my tiny
personal power.

"Removing your own code from [GitHub] is a violation of their Terms of Service? WTF? This is a
kidnapping. We need to start decentralizing the hosting of free software source code," responded
software engineer Sergio Gómez.
