GitHub.com is giving away 500 free 30 day Micro accounts. Coupon Code: "WWDC11"

Since when did a 30 day trial become a deal, or require a coupon code? What a joke.

Is there any way to postpone the 30 day countdown? It's going to be a terribly busy month for me as the finals are coming up.

Thanks! I was considering a micro account, but I think this just made me decide!

...and what happens to any private repos when it's over?

I tried to find information about this on their site for half an hour the other day, couldn't find a thing.

I would hope that they would stay private, and that you simply wouldn't be able to push any new commits to them.

They become read-only (and still private) and you get a big ol' red box at the top of every Github page asking you to pay them or downgrade to the free plan. (http://cl.ly/0W3X0g1l0N13450b0C00)

Just in time. Thank you.
