You only have to pay if the repositories are private.
GitHub offers free bronze plans (10 private repositories) for nonprofits.
Interesting, the report specifies that user data is 1 of 3 types:

They could have selected any resolution after basing icons and other graphical bits on SVG and it would ALWAYS look as sharp as it needs to look.
It's true that SVG can scale, but you need tailor them for the intended pixel size. SVG images designed for 256x256 look horrible when scaled to 16x16 or 32x32. The smaller ones need less detail, so you can't just assume that an SVG graphic will work at any resolution.
Just look at the greasy finger marks
The question of smudges was addressed by Zach Pace in the Building Windows 8 blog entry on picture passwords. He emphasizes that Microsoft's goal was to design a password mechanism that was easier to use than PINs on touch devices, with equal or better security.
The picture password system is certainly vulnerable to the smudge factor, but it's no worse than existing PIN systems today.
It doesn't affect the obese? (runs)
