I don't suggest to "eat our¹ own dogfood" and use Diaspora, GNUnet or 
GoLD for development collaboration.  What I suggest is to use public 
mailinglist and straight git rather than 
you-must-be-member-of-this-closed-system-to-even-read tools.

I can offer to create an rdfjs team at alioth.debian.org with public 
mailinglist and a git area.  Would that be useful?

Like at github you need to create an account to get write access, but 
unlike github it is plain and simple git and email.  You do *not* need 
to become member of Debian to get an account at Alioth.

¹ Also, I am more software librarian (Debian maintainer for 14+ years) 
than coder, so it would be _your_ dogfood :-)
