In the absence of a proposal to change version control systems
(again), the lack of Mercurial hosting on GitHub makes it rather a
moot point. Given that we can barely muster up any enthusiasm for
rehosting *without* changing version control systems (and the number
of CI systems that integrate with hg.python.org repos other than the
main CPython one is exactly zero), any proposal that involves doing
even *more* work seems doubly doomed.

Cheers,
Nick.
