We will be working to promote the github repo, once the migration and PEP-512
is complete.

Promoting semi-official repo in the interim (as opposed the active one in
hg.python.org) does not seem like a good idea.

  

This thread about claiming ownership of look-alike repo and we could
concentrate our discussion on that alone.

  

FWIW, that old look-alike (python-dev) repo as been in existence for years now
and it has not caused any confusion. Once python moves to github, I think, we
can ask for some logo or some kind of validation that will help users easily
identify the originality.

  

  

Thanks,

Senthil
