We're actually trying to retain the ability to merge back into scalax when this project is "completed" or "matured". The main reason I pushed for github is the ghpages feature of github. It allows us to maintain a static website with documentation with no cost other than time. There's also rumors of github->
scalatools.org integration in the future.
Anyway, let us know if you'd like to help contribute! We see this as a very important task to the evolution of scala.

Why on github, not on bitbucket? scalax is stored in Mercurial.
Actually, IO is only part of scalax I use, so this is great!
And also, shouldn't scalax.io be renamed to something like
org.scalatools.io or something. I don't like package name scala* for
anything unofficial.
