How about making it a proper GitHub repository, opposed to a Gist? Since it's more than just a fragment of code, it's a standalone Emacs library. As far as I understand it, it would be easier to collaborate on a GitHub repository than on a Gist.

Anyway, I pushed some commits to my fork of your info-mode.el: https://gist.github.com/sensorflo/a6299a9cd0563abdc02d
