PSF Infrastructure has chosen Roundup as the issue tracker for Python development

At the beginning of the month the PSF Infrastructure committee announced
that we had reached the decision that JIRA was our recommendation for the
next issue tracker for Python development.  Realizing, though, that it was a
tough call between JIRA and Roundup we said that we would be willing to
switch our recommendation to Roundup if enough volunteers stepped forward to
help administer the tracker, thus negating Atlassian's offer of free managed
hosting.

Well, the community stepped up to the challenge and we got plenty of
volunteers!  In fact, the call for volunteers has led to an offer for
professional hosting for Roundup from Upfront Systems.  The committee is
currently evaluating that offer and will hopefully have a decision made
soon.  Once a decision has been made we will contact the volunteers as to
whom we have selected to help administer the installation (regardless of who
hosts the tracker).  The administrators and python-dev can then begin
working towards deciding what we want from the tracker and its
configuration.

Once again, thanks to the volunteers for stepping forward to make this
happen!
