I just want to be clear. To the best of my knowledge The Apache Software Foundation has never killed any puppies.

Disclaimer: I am a Member of The Apache Software Foundation. I do not own any puppies. These two facts are not connected.

(thanks for bringing some reality to this post, I don't agree with your other comments, see my comments elsewhere fore why, but your opening para is spot on)

Hyperbole is best answered with hyperbole.

Note that I have nothing against Git. I use it. The main difference between Apache and GitHub is one is a non-profit whose main goal to shepherd OS projects while the other one is a for-profit company out to make money. I don't think it's a fair comparison to use one to substitute another.
