[Python-ideas] From mailing list to GitHub issues

[Eugene Pakhomov]

The world probably wouldn't better, but I think python-ideas will be better
on something like GitHub.
People who like it will benefit from it, people who don't will still be
able to use their email setup (as pointed earlier - at least for the
majority of cases).

Regards,
Eugene
