As a maintainer of the PyPI project, it makes your workflow simpler,

- contributors can clone the repo, change the code and ask you for a pull
- you can pull changes by direct hg commands, and merge them

After using Mercurial in one project, I'm skeptical that this really makes things simpler. I find it very hard to find out what changes a specific clone has that I still need to integrate. Also, when merging with conflicts, I find it very difficult to determine whether I merged all the conflicts correctly (since the diff will show all changes, not just the conflicts).

So I rather expect things to become more difficult when switching to hg.

Regards,
Martin
