Don't know about acceptable, but as far as I know hosting Mercurial repositories doesn't require as much work as hosting Roundup instances (which the Mercurial project also has). I wouldn't mind maintaining hg.python.org, and there are probably other devs that could also easily get involved. Anyway, I don't think using Bitbucket buys us much. It could be nice to keep a mirror there for redundancy and because it might make contributing slightly easier for non-committers, but it won't allow doing all kinds of custom hooks the way we could do with hg.p.o, AFAICT.
