As a programmer using the code others publish on Github, I'm definitely interested in those, the more so when I want to contribute. Many project are sorely lacking a way to report and discuss (possible) bugs (bug tracker, mailing list, hell, an email address would be fine) and to figure out what version of the code contains what (release history/changelog and version numbers). However small, I find projects without those much harder to use and improve.
