Ask HN: Free accounts for students?

We charge for private repositories at GitHub. As a result, we often get emails from students asking for free, private accounts (usually of the $7/mo or $12/mo variety).

"I'm working on a website with some friends and we don't have any money. If we start making money, we'll gladly move to a paid account!"

While we offer free private accounts to instructors for classes, we haven't given students free accounts to work on commercial projects in the past.

Should we? Would you?
