Here are some technical problems that immediately come to mind:
 - We would be missing launchpad user integration. We would either
need to replicate our users and teams in github or create a mapping
between github and launchpad.
 - Our workflow tools would need to be ported to talk to git and
github. This includes things like lp:tarmac and lp:cupstream2distro.
The git plugin appears to help here, but doesn't appear to do things
like enforce review requirements and comment on reviews.
