Presumably, and I'm still tied VCS tools like SVN and am therefore no git master, it's possible to pull from repositories anywhere, whether they're on github or (new to me) bitbucket?  I see no reason not to maintain the independent "sovereignty" of your project or any other since, as you say, it means you can continue to update and improve it just like you always did with no additional friction, but still reap all of the benefits (or, more accurately, allow users to reap all the benefits) of a single git pull from macruby.org to get all the goodies from one distribution point.

I'll also be the first to admit that us non-DVCS users tend to attribute almost magical properties to git ("it even allows you to synchronize data from deep space probes out past the orbit of JUPITER!"), but this notion should be well within its capabilities, yes?
