No, we wouldn't lose our commit history at all. We can convert the existing holland-backup account directly to an Organization, as I understand it.  I assume the repo paths we will remain the same so it should be pretty transparent. 

I think it's a good idea to do this.   Let's do it once we get 1.0.6 out the door.

So I, as a regular user can create an organization.  The default Team is 'Owners'.  I can add all the other core developers to the Owners Team which is full/equal access.  You can then create other teams... like 'Core Developers', that have full read/write/admin access on repos in that Org.... or say "Contributors" that have 'read' access on the repo (not really a big deal for public/open repos).
