Moving version control systems and +hosting is a lot of hard work: On the one hand, PyPy's mercurial history is +long and gnarly. On the other hand, all our infrastructure (buildbots, +benchmarking, etc) would have to be adapted. So unless somebody steps up and +volunteers to do all that work, it will likely not happen. _______________________________________________ pypy-commit mailing list pypy-commit@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-commit
