interesting. i would be down for that, but IMO at least, i'd like to first take some time to stabilize the repos, such as splitting. Lex and I (mostly him) have also converted to website to wiki pages (to go live tonight), which are then auto-rebuilt after each wiki update ... would need to reconcile these things. personally i'm not too giddy about using hg, but probably i'm already a minority here. i'm curious how, as arbiters, they actually resolve conflicts ... i mean, what would have been the process, if we stepped back 3 weeks and were already under the PSF? -- C Anthony
