Does it need to be a new repo, or would permissions on
https://github.com/numpy/numpy.scipy.org work as well?

Yes it would. I've taken Fernando's suggestion and created a github team
"Scipy web team" and given you push-pull permissions for
https://github.com/scipy/scipy.org-new Scott.

David, once you make a few pull requests please ping us, and we can give
you permissions too.
