Hi Travis,

I thinks it is pretty obvious: if N people have password for an account then the chance that this password is compromised is N times bigger. Also please remember that most PEAR officials are elected, thus it will be harder to revoke access of former officials and less transparent. Both of these will, of course, be a non-issue if "pear" and "pear2" are not accounts but groups and / or roles. I am not aware whether GitHub supports those, though.I immediately see at least three problems with having "pear" and "pear2" accounts anywhere, including GitHub: 2) It will introduce unnecessary security problems.Unless you are willing to back this statement up with examples of stated "security problems", I would like to ask you to refrain from spreading FUD.
