Should we add a reference to the metadata issue tracker to the PEPs
themselves? That's a better home for bug reports than the mailing list
(Note I'm also happy to move the repo for metadata drafts to GitHub if
folks would prefer that - it's a pretty simple repo, so git-hg bridges
should handle the conversion easily. The issue migration would involve a
bit more work, though).

Cheers,
Nick.
