I don't recall seeing any go past...

Perception really. We want signal that it is the 'official' PostgreSQL
charm for and by the community, rather than a Canonical or Ubuntu
specific thing. Moving to git seems the ideal time. I'll have a mirror
on Launchpad to accept submissions, and maybe Github (but I'd like to
keep everything Open Source if possible and would rather avoid keeping
the master there)
