OK. Here's what PSF has to say by words of Van Lindberg:

It really is not in the best interest of anyone for the PSF to dictate 
policy. Instead, the PSF would act as a neutral ground that everyone 
could use to just go back to coding. I had in mind the following:

- Announcement of the transfer of the pyjs name and domain to the PSF
- Transfer of domain registration and DNS to the PSF registrar/nameservers
- Setup of a pyjs mailman instance on python.org servers
- Perhaps set up a mercurial repo to be the "official" repo, with hg+ssh 
access to the repo.

This centralizes the disputed assets - name, code, mailing list, repo, 
etc, under the PSF, with PSF administration, but gives everyone enough 
access to code, commit, etc - and fork development, if need be.
