Again, something that should be in PEP 385 (but isn't).

It seems that the work *is* going on, and the people actually doing it
have a reasonable idea as to what has been decided and where things
are going, but those of us "out here" have a fair stake in this as
well, and without an up to date PEP 385 there's no one place to go to
to see the current state of the migration.

That's enough to make folks like me somewhat nervous as to whether or
not we're actually going to have a usable source control system come
December 12.

Cheers,
Nick.
