Correct; it can be browsed at <http://svn.python.org/view/sandbox/trunk/>

I think most of those projects weren't initially started with the goal
of stdlib inclusion.  The problems with a separate Sourceforge project are:

* fewer people will see the commit messages.
* if the project isn't completed, everyone will forget about the SF 
  project in a few year.  In sandbox/, at least the code will still be
  somewhat visible; maybe someone would finish it.
