I think this can certainly be merged. We should however first pick up the
scipy-central code, domain names, etc. that were offered by Kevin Dunn (the
original author) for transfer to the community last year (
http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/scipy-dev/2012-August/017911.html)

I would propose to transfer some of the domain names to NumFOCUS, and put
the main scipy-central repo under github.com/scipy. I can take care of
that, if everyone agrees. Then we do need to move the site to a new server
and do some maintenance when needed. Is there someone who is willing to
help with that?
