[python-win32] Bug reporting

So, could someone clear up a couple of odd little puzzles for me? If
the adodbapi project has really moved to GitHub, (1) why does the
readme file for the package on GitHub still point back to the
SourceForge page, which still tells people to file bug reports there?
and (2) why is the apibase.py file (without which adodbapi can't load)
not in the GitHub repo?

Thanks,
Bob
