yes, one public repo is good, but if github becomes somehow evil, it is
easy to move to something else.

marking the hg repo somehow as inactive: Well, technically I could
change contents of dillo.org, but I hesitate there, I am not a
maintainer, so I rather would shut down the stuff with some warning
before. It just does not make sense anymore so much.
I cannot change the dns entry of dillo.org to have some redirect to
something. I am not aware that anybody else than Jorge has access to
dillo.org nameserver entries.

I think the github repo contains the full history of the mercurial
repo, so nothing is lost.

Regards,
Andreas
