Come to think of it, why not host the official mercurial SVN mirror repo on Bitbucket for the same reason (lots of nice hg features on Bitbucket -- nicer than hgweb/www.open-mpi.org's hosting).
There's no need to delete the original mercurial SVN mirror on www.open-mpi.org (because I know of at least one group who is actively using it), but we could deprecate it and schedule to take it down in, say, 6 months or so.
