He said that this is just to try out github for now. And for now the official development will be on Google Code. And then when he's ready to move it over, he'll wipe the current repository on github.

"To see how well this works I have created a SNAPSHOT of the repository. This way we can try it out. "

I love this idea! I work in an open space with a bunch of developers in close quarters, and we're constantly interrupting each other. The collaboration is great, but sometimes it would be nice to be able to get some uninterrupted time to really get stuff done.

My only concern is that the sign always says "Wired in" even when you aren't wired in. I know I could teach my co-workers what each color means, but I would like it if it was a little more intuitive. What are your thoughts on how to get your co-workers on board with this idea?

Basically, instead of hosting a database on your server and using php to generate the pages on every request, like Wordpress does, you just create a text file for every page, and precompile your entire site into raw html files, so that it's really fast because there is no processing on the server.
