That should be easy by adding a mirrored remote and pushing to it via  
cron (see  
http://support.github.com/discussions/repos/684-how-to-create-repository-in-mirror-mode).

I do have my own mirror of Horde master on github.com which I push  
manually once in a while (http://github.com/wrobel/horde).

github turned out to be an important source of information about PHP  
development in the past year for me. So an official Horde mirror would  
be great!

On github one would probably rather have one repository per package  
(framework or app) as that makes forking a component easier but thats  
a different story.

Cheers,

Gunnar
