python.org is still transitioning away from being a paid
development effort to a volunteer effort and a lot still needs
to be done to make the volunteer contributions easier.

The next few months should get us a lot closer to a working
eco system.

Note that the site will have to support multiple different
efforts with different needs and so we'll not only have one
group in charge of the site, but instead one for each sub-
system. The job board, the calendars, the success stories,
PEPs, etc. are examples of such sub-systems.
