Each repository can have its own issue tracker, wiki, etc., so thats
fine. But you might consider hosting documentation at github. I don't
recommend using the "gh-pages branch" method of hosting docs, which
uses a separate DAG in the main repository, and would serve them at
http://matplotlib.github.com/matplotlib. Instead, I want to propose
hosting the documentation in a repo at
https:github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib.github.com.git, which will
serve the sphinx-built docs at http://matplotlib.github.com . If the
basemap repo is hosted under mpl, its docs could be hosted like
Fernando has been suggesting, in a separate basemap-docs repo, which
would be served at http://matplotlib.github.com/basemap-docs. If
basemap had its own organization, the docs could be served at
http://basemap.github.com. Just something to keep in mind.
