There are two solutions to this I think they can use a really distributed version control including tickets and wiki as part of the repository as it is done in fossil scm (http://www.fossil-scm.org/ http://www.fossil-scm.org/) or just use trac with ticket triage like its being done with http://code.djangoproject.com/ http://code.djangoproject.com/ My personal suggestion is to get out of github as the platform is not open source and there are no community process to enhance or change it. Its just another sourceforge with flashy interface.
