Welcome to your new home: https://github.com/jython/jython

Take a look around. I'm sincerely hoping this works for us all, or is 
only wrong in ways we can put right. If you find this is irreparably 
messed up, we may be able to start over. Otherwise, I think this is 
where we now invite contribution and fix issues.

After a day or two cooling off, I propse we ask the Ernest and the 
infrastructure team to make hg.python.org/jython read-only in some 
gentle way we could reverse if we had to.

Anything other loose ends?
