I don't even know off the top of my head how to determine if such information 
exists, so I doubt it's super useful.  Personally, I think it would be fine to 
lose it.  99% of the data on Vertex was in Subversion anyway, and what little 
data we might have added by fixing Launchpad bugs and linking to them is of 
relatively little value.

Besides, even if this metadata conferred some small advantage, your Github 
branch already has *big* advantage over launchpad: it has continuous 
integration :-).

I'd also say we should move it under the <https://github.com/twisted> umbrella, 
since leaving it on your personal page is obviously not great.  There's not 
much point any more of an independent "Divmod" organization (or, even worse, a 
separate "Vertex" organization), as far as I can see, it's just more overhead.  
Putting it under the Twisted org will likely generate more exposure from people 
randomly browsing and hopefully get some more contributors interested.  (Plus, 
hasn't vertex motivated, like, 90% of the new features in Twisted in the last 5 
years?  Endpoints, twisted.protocols.tls, twisted.internet.ssl.*Certificate*... 
seems right that its association become official.)
