To implement an LSP server for Emacs Lisp, in the abstract, is a good thing to do. However, doing it in special relation with GitHub is the wrong way.

The GNU Project is very concerned to help replace GitHub, _not_ to enhance it. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
